THE SAVIOR, THE MESSIAH... THE NAME OF THE SON... The name of the Messiah, in Hebrew-his own language, is Yahshua (Hebrew), which means Yahweh is salvation or Yahweh saves. The name Jesus is the result of a series of changes from Hebrew to a Latinized Greek. The word is not a transliteration, and it cannot be translated, since it is a hybrid word. Hebrew names can be translated; they make a statement, such as, Yahshua = Yahweh is salvation. The word Jesus does not deliver the message that Yahweh is salvation. [and, of course, Jesus was never actually his name.] The pronunciation of Yahshua (Hebrew) varies among different groups. Since the Hebrew spelling is exactly the same as Joshua, the son of Nun, some people pronounce it as Joshua with a Y sound - Yahshua; the Y would be the correct sound since the J sound does not exist in Hebrew. In fact, because of the same spelling, the King James Version mistranslated (Acts 7:45) and (Hebrews 4:8) using Jesus instead of Joshua (other versions like the NIV have corrected this). In reality, the name of Joshua and the name of the Messiah were the same name. Strongs Concordance states that - Iesous is of Hebrew origin - yeh-ho shoo-ah; and that this is also the name of Joshua, the Jewish leader. Some people state that the ancient pronunciation of this name is Ya-HO-shu-wa, and that by the time of the Messiah, the HO had been dropped; I have seen no written study of this. Strongs has obvious errors, Yeh instead of Yah. His vowel points are of more modern Hebrew usage; he uses a sheva instead of a pattach and thus gets Yeh. And, he uses Jehovah instead of Yahweh. We can understand, now, that Jesus would not have been the name that Miriam (Mary) was told to give her son. The J sound didnt exist then, and doesnt exist now, in the Hebrew or Aramaic languages. In fact, it didnt exist in English until 500 years ago. (Matthew 1:21) And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name Yahshua (means: Yahweh is salvation): for HE shall save his people from their sins. 22 Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Master by the prophet, saying, 23 Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, Elohim with us [means: a mighty one is with us].Yeshua is the name used by todays Jews and messianic believers when referring to the Messiah. The Ye was a replacement of Yah to avoid pronouncing the Fathers name even in its shortened, poetic form [a traditional Jewish restriction that began at the time of the Babylonian exile]. Using Yeshua does not honor Yahweh as intended in (Matthew 1:21) above. By pronouncing Yahshua, we state that Yahweh is salvation. It is to be expected that people would have slightly different pronunciations, but the Yah portion of the name is well documented. An honest attempt to pronounce this Hebrew name from the Hebrew letters shows respect to the Messiah and to Yahweh, even if we may not be saying it quite correctly. This is more respectful than replacing the name with something else that is not a translation or a transliteration...FACTS, FACTS, FACTS,...LOVE THE TRUTH...LOVE...(PASTORG)...(HEBREWS 2:1, 4)...SAYS WARNING TO PAY ATTENTION WE MUST PAY MORE CAREFUL ATTENTION, THEREFORE, TO WHAT WE HAVE HEARD, SO THAT WE DO NOT DRIFT AWAY.
