that the Jews cannot write it out in full, because if the paper should become spoiled on which the name of God was written out that it would profane His Holy name.

And I suppose the O is left out since Hebrew has no actual vowels.
Donald gave you his reason. I gave you his Rabbi's reason.

Have a blessed evening all

Ps 133:1-3
1 Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity!
2 It is like the precious ointment upon the head, that ran down upon the beard, even Aaron's beard: that went down to the skirts of his garments;
3 As the dew of Hermon, and as the dew that descended upon the mountains of Zion: for there the LORD commanded the blessing, even life for evermore.
