1 | Who then is on this broad way? | Matt 7:13 | rakpak | 217011 | ||
Again, all I did was answer a question, everyone has to do what they believe is right, and since he was Hebrew I prefer to use his Hebrew name. And James would be pronounced something like yah-ak-obe'. |

Hi, RakPak... I am Hebrew too. Do you think that you accrue some benefit with God to use Hebrew? The church used Greek -- as did James, by the way. Because they wanted to communicate to as many people as possible. Do you think they were compromising by using Iesous instead of Hebrew? We seek to do what is right, it is true. However, when we deviate from the orthodoxy of Christianity, we need better reasons than "I do what is right in my own eyes." All that aside... You are seeking to communicate with a set of Bible students. Wouldn't you want to use language that does not impede our study, but rather what most effectively communicates? In Him, Doc |

As I stated before, using his Hebrew names is my personal preference, I am not telling anyone they have to. I enjoy looking into the Hebrew names and their meanings. If you want to use Iesous or Iesou, because it is spelled thay way also in the greek text, by all means use it. I still use the name Jesus when talking to others that use the name Jesus. But teaching His Hebrew name is not that complicated, and you might be suprised at how many Bible students already know it. Pro 30:4 Who hath ascended up into heaven, or descended? who hath gathered the wind in his fists? who hath bound the waters in a garment? who hath established all the ends of the earth? what is his name, and what is his son's name, if thou canst tell? Then on the other hand, if you are witnessing to a Jewish person, they would understand the Hebrew name much easier, and its easier to point out in the OT. Every christian I know speaks at least to words in Hebrew. HalleluYah-Praise Yah |
