What is Jesus name? The name of Jesus in the Bible is what appears to be a Latin transcription of what was originally an Aramaic word. The original Aramaic word, יהושע (Yeshua) or יהושע (Yehoshua), had the same meaning as the Hebrew name Joshua. It means “Jehovah is salvation” or “Jehovah saves.”
Why is this important?
A name is what we use to identify someone. The most important person in the world had a specific and unique name: Jesus of Nazareth. Just like you or me, his identity came from what he was called and what people knew him as – not just what they thought about him or assumed that he would be when they met him for the first time without knowing who he was.
Your identity comes from what you are called – the name that people know you by, not just what they think of you when they meet you for the first time without knowing who you are.
