Re: Jochebed pronunciation?
The Hebrew pronunciation is yo-KHEH-vehd.
In English I don't know how to pronounce the name, I wouldn't want to pronounce it at all.

Yes, I have always actually heard it pronounced yo-KHEH-ved as you described, but then again, it was always in Theological Studies courses when discussing the mother of Mosees; I have no insight as to any other pronunciatons.
