What does the name Yeshua mean in Hebrew?

Posted by Annette Jennings  |  POST A COMMENT

In Hebrew and in Aramaic, the word for "salvation" is "YESHUA." What is most interesting is that it is all over the Tenakh (OLD TESTAMENT). If you read the Hebrew translations, which is the original texts, you would be astonished by the fact that Jesus's true name, YESHUA, is found within the Jewish texts that proclaimed the coming of the Messiah.

Mat 1:21 And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name YESHUA: for he shall save his people from their sins.

Isn’t it amazing that his names means “Salvation.” Is it any wonder now that one needs to believe and accept “Salvation” (Yeshua/Jesus) to be saved?! Doesn’t it make more sense now? 

Learning about the roots of our faith is like learning more about your family!
