Did Jesus have a Hebrew name? If so, which one? Some call him Yeshua, some call Him Yashua and some call Him Yahoshua and a whole list of other names. They insist He had a Hebrew name yet the scripture only list his name in Greek as "ee-ay-soos".
There is not a shred of evidence that Jesus had a Hebrew name. Yet people insist He not only had a Hebrew name but we should call Him bu it. Is that Just snobbery?
At the time of Christ, Israel was fully Hellenized for hundreds of years. The common Israelite did not know how to speak Hebrew. Aramaic and Greek was the language in vogue. That is why the Septuagint so the common man could read and understand the OT.
Personalty, I have seen miracles happen when pray was invoked in Jesus name. So I don't Jesus cares if I call Him Jesus. Yet some want to call Him by a name they can not prove He had.
