It isn't terribly wrong and appears to be more correct than "Jesus". That is the Greek spelling of the Hebrew name "Yeshua"(and please note this is an English transliteration of the Hebrew characters). The direct to English version of his name is one you have heard before, it is Joshua. The more translations that one puts a name through the further it will be from the original.The reason why no bible has Jesus's name as 'Yehoshua', is because it it isn't Jesus's name.
It is what Bible scholars claim. Do you need links?Your theory presumes either, the name of Jesus, as written in the Bible, is a version, of the real name, quite different, actually, or, the greek writefs couldn't manage to indicare 'joshuah', which only requires an 'a', or an 'o', somewhere. Your theory , or rather the theory, isn't very good at all.
No, that is not a theory.No, you're the one who is saying that Jesus's name is Yehoshua, you have to argue that. And what you presented is a theory.
I know the theory. It isn't direct. The 'o' in Iesous , Iesou, isn't an 'oh', it's 'oo', [bootIt is what Bible scholars claim. Do you need links?
Can you support another name?
Yes, it definitely is a theory.No, that is not a theory.
Sorry, but I am lost as to what your argument is. You seem to be trying to support a belief you have.The reason why no bible has Jesus's name as 'Yehoshua', is because it it isn't Jesus's name.
That evidently is clear from Chapter 2 verses 1 to 4.ok.....so written history of Man begins there
Chapter One is prehistoric
Is this not what I posted here?I know the theory. It isn't direct. The 'o' in Iesous , Iesou, isn't an 'oh', it's 'oo', [boot
There is no direct evidence the name is Joshuah, except it was presumably used interchangeably at some point
Iesoua
Iosoua
Those both are better for joshua
I didn't say that Jesus's name was YHWH, or Yehoshua, which would be the Matthew 1:21Sorry, but I am lost as to what your argument is. You seem to be trying to support a belief you have.
Jesus (Latin) may have been pronounced Yeshua or possibly Yehoshua.
Yehoshua (Joshua) is Hebrew. It means Jehovah (YHVH / יְהוָֹה) is salvation (yasha / יָשַׁע).
Jehovah is salvation is not YHVH (יְהוָֹה), but Yehoshua (יְהוֹשׁוּעַ).
Scripture does not show Jesus is Jehovah. Rather, it shows Jesus is Jehovah's means of salvation.
I don't know how else I can put this, for you to understand it.
Yehoshua is Hebrew.I didn't say thst Jesus's name was YHWH, or Yehoshua, which would be the Matthew 1:21
Subject.
Jesus's name, is
Iesous
Iesou
Jesus
Isho
Yesu
Jezus
And some other variants. Those are all variants of the 'same name'.
Yehoshuah, isn't.
Names can change over time. Your argument appears to be with scholars that understand the languages involved. What ancient languages can you speak fluently? I will go with those that appear to be able to do this.I know the theory. It isn't direct. The 'o' in Iesous , Iesou, isn't an 'oh', it's 'oo', [boot

To make matters worse our "Jesus" was translated from either Hebrew or Aramaic to Greek and then to Latin and then to English. That it has very little resemblance to the original is not all that surprising.Yehoshua is Hebrew.
Did you not understand what I wrote here?
Jesus [Lat. form of the Gr. I·e·sousʹ, which corresponds to the Heb. Ye·shuʹaʽ or Yehoh·shuʹaʽ and means “Jehovah Is Salvation”].
The GreeksThose under Greek dominion, wrote Greek, not Hebrew.
Seems you did not understand.
Why do you say it was translated. Jesus was a Jew. His Jewish, or Hebrew name would have been understood by Greeks in their language. So writing a Hebrew name in Greek would not have been a problem.To make matters worse our "Jesus" was translated from either Hebrew or Aramaic to Greek and then to Latin and then to English.
