Yeshua

Discover the origin, meaning and pronunciation of the name Yeshua.

Yeshua is of Hebrew origin and is reportedly the actual name of Jesus. The meaning of Yeshua is 'to deliver' or 'to rescue'. It is a late form of the Biblical name Yehoshua or Joshua. The disciples of Jesus referred to him with the name Yeshua HaMashiach (Messiah). The origin of the name got lost in translation from Hebrew, where Jesus was named Yeshua, to Greek where he was called Iesous, to Latin where he was named Iesus. The name was seen in one of the most popular excerpts of Psalm 14:7, which read 'Oh, that the salvation (Yeshua) of Israel would come out of Zion!'. One of the most popular namesakes is the author of 'Book Of Sirach', named Yeshua ben Sira.
