The name of the LORD is a strong tower: the righteous runs into it, and is safe. [Proverbs 18:10] The Hebrew name Yehoshua (Joshua) derives from a combination of YHVH and yasha, and means YHVH saves. Later Yehoshua was shortened to Yeshua (see Neh 8:17), which is the Hebrew name for Jesus, of course. As a type of Joshua, Jesus exemplifies the ultimate deliverance of His people by taking Israel into the land to inherit the promises. Indeed, calling upon the Name of the Lord Jesus is to call upon the Name of YHVH, since Jesus Himself is YHVH come in the flesh (Isa 9:6; Isa 45:23; Phil 2:11; Rom 10:9). There is no other Name given to mankind for salvation (Acts 4:12, Isa 43:11). [To Read More click here: hebrew4christians/Meditations/Migdal-Oz/migdal-oz.html ]
