Bible Question: was the name Jesus a common name in His time or was the name given specifically to Him? |
Bible Answer: In english his name would be Joshua. Jesus is the Greek form of the Hebrew Joshua. It means Jehovah saves, or Jehovah has become our salvation. I think that it would be said in Hebrew - "yes shew a", because they don't pronouince the "J". Add the J and you get Joshua. |
