><>...Hi Bob...><>
You asked Nancy.
"Why can't you just say Jesus, why Yeshua?
2424 Iesous (ee-ay-sooce');
of Hebrew origin [3091]; Jesus (i.e. Jehoshua), the name of our Lord and two (three) other Israelites:
KJV-- Jesus.
3091 Yehowshuwa' (yeh-ho-shoo'-ah); or Yehowshu' a (yeh-ho-shoo'-ah); from 3068 and 3467; Jehovah-saved; Jehoshua (i.e. Joshua), the Jewish leader: -Jehoshua, Jehoshuah, Joshua. Compare 1954, 3442.
More specifically There are no J's in the hebrew tongue, and therefore His mother, father,and all who knew Him called Him by His given name...Yeshua... which is translated ..Jesus...in english....for our convenience.
Hope this helps you I seem to remember going over this with you some time ago...maybe you just forgot.
Ps.133 Have a good day Bob Shalom...><> |
