WHY NOT THE NAME JESUS? VIDEO SERIES

Episode 1

Do we “Get” him?

Most of us did not start our spiritual journey with a Torah-observant mindset — we had what Keith Johnson calls a “Jesus journey.” We learned the Jesus stories and the Jesus songs, but there’s a big difference between knowing about him and truly knowing him.

The truth is, we cannot truly understand his ministry or his message without first understanding his original, given name: Yeshua.

Why Not Jesus? with Keith Johnson stresses the importance of knowing the power and purpose of our Messiah’s name — because, without it, we will fall into the trap of creating our own “Jesus” and our own religion.

Mainstream marketing has been flooded with a multi-million-dollar campaign to promote the Messiah — but is it pointing to a savior that doesn’t exist? Keith Johnson explains why the “He Gets Us” campaign sends a misguided message based upon a false idea of “Jesus” and why the real question is: “Do we get Him?”

Episode 2

Where did “Jesus” come from?

Where did Yeshua’s name come from? Modern Christianity would have us believe it was unique, but it actually comes from the Torah! Keith Johnson explains how Yeshua’s name was politicized over the centuries to completely disassociate it from the language, history, and context of the Old Testament!

Episode 3

The Bethlehem Birth Certificate

Translators of many English Bibles put poison tricks into their translations in order to disconnect the English name “Jesus” from the Hebrew Yeshua. Keith Johnson reveals “the Bethlehem birth certificate” that forever solidifies Yeshua’s name with his mission.

Episode 4

Let Yeshua Speak!

Yeshua never spoke in his own name; he spoke only in the name of his Father. In this final episode, Keith Johnson shows us, using Yeshua’s own words, what the Messiah’s name really means, why it has so much power, and how his name was written in three different languages.

Where did the name “Jesus” come from?

The name “Jesus” has a long, long history. The origin of this name is the Hebrew name יהושע (yehoshu’a, Strong’s #3091 [Latinized as Joshua]), which means “Yahweh saves.” This Hebrew name is first used Exodus 17:9 where we are introduced to Yehoshu’a Ben Nun.

When this Hebrew name was transliterated in the Greek Septuagint (2,000 year old Greek translation of the Hebrew Bible) it was written as Ἰησοῦς (iesous). The Greek alphabet had no “Y” sound, so it used the “I” sound. The Greek alphabet has no consonant “H,” or equivalent, so this sound is dropped. The Greek alphabet also had no “Sh” sound, so it used the “S” sound. Then, Greek male names end with “s,” so the “s” was added. And this is how יהושע (yehoshu’a) became Ἰησοῦς (iesous) in the Greek.

It is common for names to shift and evolve when transferred from one culture to another. For instance, the German name Ludwig is Louis in France and the Spanish name Juan is John in English speaking countries. The Hebrew name יהושע (yehoshu’a, Strong’s #3091) is ישוע (yeshu’a, Strong’s #3442 [Latinized as Jeshua]) in the Aramaic language, such as we see in Ezra 2:2. When this Aramaic name was transliterated in the Greek Septuagint, they used the same method as stated above and it comes out to Ἰησοῦς (iesous), the same as it did for yehoshu’a.

When we come to the New Testament period we find that the name of the Messiah is Ἰησοῦς (iesous) in the Greek New Testament, but we find that it is ישוע (yeshu’a) in the Aramaic New Testament. When the Greek New Testament was translated into Latin in the 4th Century this name was written as Iesus, an exact match to the Greek that it came from. The Latin letter “I” split into two letters, “I” and “J.” Originally this was two different ways of writing the same letter. So the Iesus became Jesus, but they were both pronounced the same way. Years later, some cultures began using the “I” for the vowel sound and “J” for a “Y” sound. It was not until around 1500 AD that the letter J took on the “dg” sound we are familiar with today.

So, the modern name “Jesus” comes from the Latin Iesus, which comes from the Greek Iesous, which comes from the Aramaic Yeshu’a and the Hebrew Yehoshu’a.

YHWH- Yehovah and Jesus – Yeshua

Torah for Every Culture

Hebrew name for YHWH/ LORD and Jesus

This is truly a very deep and rich discussion. One that cannot be expressed in a simple article. What I have done is compile a few of the teachings that have helped me to come to the understanding that I have now. There are more than what you see here; I encourage you to study for yourself. I pray that this gives you a good start.

God’s true name is YHWH and is pronounced Yehovah and Jesus name in Hebrew is Yeshua or Yehoshua. For many centuries God’s name has been hidden from humanity. You can begin first by understanding that your typical Bible has hidden the word YHWH with LORD from the world. You can read this article that will give you clarity. We have reposted this article on our website here.

How did I come to my decision about who to believe?

This is a very important issue understanding the name of YHWH. If you can’t speak, read, write Biblical Hebrew, for me, you can’t gain my trust that you understand what you are talking about when it comes to cutting through all the opinions. Of course it’s not enough to understand Hebrew but being a linguist, researcher and/or scholar on Biblical Hebrew is also a good start. So I looked for people who met the standards above AND could show me their work. And then I looked to see if others in their “world” referenced their work.

Here are a few major points that confirmed it for me. These are summaries of what I gained from the sources I listed in the table below.

The Masoretic text is the most widely respected and agreed upon Hebrew/English translation of the Bible. Strongs is the most respected concordance When you look up the Strongs concordance for H3068 LORD it says Yehovah. Why trust it for everything else but not trust it for Yehovah?
New documents and new scholars have appeared on the scene (around the early 2000) that could show the tetragrammaton with the consonants AND the full vowels. These visuals had been missing from “public” for centuries. Hebrew grammar rules are that 4 consonants YHWH must have three (3) vowels not two(2)
Based on Hebrew grammar God’s name at the beginning is “Yeho” – Yehovah but at the end it’s Yah – Hallelu Yah. This also follows where the accent/stress is on the syllable of the words pronunciation
3 parts to YHWH – past present & future . Yehovah demonstrates that better than Yahweh. Direct quote from Seeking Truth
“The root of יהוה is the verb היה Hayah/Ehyeh, which means “to be”. The past, present and future forms of hayah which make up the Father’s Name are Hayah, Hoveh & Yiheyeh, meaning “He was, He is, He will be”. Yehovah’s very name speaks to His eternal nature.”
All the Hebrew teachers that I have listened to (who will say the name) have said Yehovah. And I respect those who have previously went all in for Yahweh and now in light of new findings of ancient Hebrew documents have agreed it’s Yehovah. These “new” findings started appearing in the early 2000’s.

Video for Yahweh HERE

This video is well presented. They are NOT in agreement with Yehovah and think it’s the least likely option. It is very beneficial to watch.

I HIGHLY recommend reading this book	Shattering the Conspiracy of Silence	Book
This article discusses how the Rabbi’s hid the name. Then gets into a VERY detailed explanation of root words and how they changed through time. This is a long read.	My Name Forever By Michael McHugh	Article
Don’t be fooled by the name. The video discusses how Yahweh came to be used but it is not the correct pronunciations. Within Hebrew communities it’s no doubt that it is Yehovah but some Samaritans (who are Jews) used Yahweh.	Nehemia’s Wall – Origins of Yahweh	Video
In this episode of Hebrew Voices, Why it’s Yehovah, but HalleluYAh, I explain why the vowel in “Yehovah” changes in “Yah” and why people who don’t understand this Hebrew rule are pronouncing Yeshua’s name wrong.	Hebrew Voices #106 – Why it’s Yehovah, but HalleluYAh	Video /Article
6min video that visual show the past, present and future within the name Yehovah	Nehemia Gordon	Video
Many articles about YHWH but this one discusses the vowels for Adonai and Yehovah – with pictures.	Seeking Truth	Article

Jesus name in Hebrew is Yeshua or Yehoshua

The name “Jesus” has a long, long history. The origin of this name is the Hebrew name יהושע (yehoshu’a, Strong’s #3091 [Latinized as Joshua]), which means “Yahweh saves.” This Hebrew name is first used Exodus 17:9 where we are introduced to Yehoshu’a Ben Nun.

Interesting video; it lays foundation for Yehovah as well as at the end getting to Yeshua meaning Yehovah’s salvation	Hebrew Luke and John found in Vatican Junk Box – Nehemia’s Wall	Video
Gives links to images of the Hebrew NT text with Yeshua	Seeking Truth	Article

If you desire to do a deep study on Yehovah – Nehemia Gordon has a wealth of information and teachings on his page. (FYI, We have no financial engagement with him or his material.)I also recommend reading this book
