On the other hand, the Greek text of Revelation 19 does transliterate the
Hebrew "Hallelu-Yah," found abundantly in the Psalms, and containing an element
of the tetragram. It is found in no other book of the GNT. It may be
assumed that Christians of John's time knew that this phrase was more than just a
nameless interjection.

Without straying beyond the bounds of tyhe list I
think that it is safe to say that the Apocalypse was
not necessarily written in Hebrew. Other theories are
current and, I understand, more popular. As for the
rest, I think the claim was that the phrase hO WN etc.
was a notional translation of the sacred
tetragrammaton as it appears in the OT--perhaps
influenced by (or taken from?) the LXX. Not that the
sacred tetragrammaton ever appeared in the text of the
Apocalypse itself.
