1. Meaning: YaH will save, YaH saves
My comment: In the meaning supplied by the Abarim Publications site. Under, Biblical Greek Dictionary, we read that admission. The meaning in this name, JESUS, is -- YaH will save or YaH saves. This is the same meaning for the Name YaHshua or YaHushua. Why then, use a manufactured name, no more than 400 years old, when we have His Name dating back to the beginning? Why change it?Leaving behind the obvious mispronunciation and supplying the correct Name of our Lord -- can you say, YaHshua? Or YaHushua? So, why say or repeat a name that never existed until around 400 years ago, while the name, YaH, and YaHshua has existed in that same sound pattern for, say, six thousand years (6,000)? It is obvious that His Name, the one given to Him at birth, has been replaced. Taking a rose and calling it a tulip, does not change it from being a rose, but if it is incorrectly labelled a tulip, people will eventually become confused with a rose' sweet smell while the tulip has no smell. Hopefully, that dispels the poetic notion some have expressed in quoting, "A rose by any other name is still a Rose"? A true statement but applied incorrectly, and if this were to happen in a book on Horticulture, it would not be acceptable, and the experts in the field of plants, would correct this immediate, with apologies all around. That is, for when it comes to the Holy Name of our Lord, YaHshua. Some variations -- YaHshua, YeHoshua, YaHushua -- Jesus?
2. Etymology: From (1) יה (yah), the name of the Lord, and (2) the verb ישע (yasha'), to save.
My comment: Two letters forming the first part of His Name, יה -- HY, as written in Hebrew, from right to left, but in the English it would be from read from left to right, or, YH. These two letters a of great importance, as this is the base for His actual Name, and is of it self, a complete Name, pronounced as YaH. You can pronounce this name, with or without the vowel (a). In the example, under Etymology, we see clearly that this is said to be, "...the name of the Lord". A clear admission, and actually saying, YaH the NAME of the LORD. But look at how it is downplayed -- yah, the name of the Lord -- as opposed to, how it is supposed to be YH or YaH, the name of the Lord.
In the name, JE sus, we see the vowel (e) used as a consonant, replacing the H, and this becomes, or is, a misspelling of His Name, as we can clearly see. Etymology, means to follow a history of a word. But, does this happen with the modern word, Jesus? No, as no history is shown, none is given, only the word or words from those who make this stuff up. It looks reasonable, it sounds reasonable, but it is foolishness, and incomplete and a total error. This site, Abrarim Publications, is not in error, it is only repeating what they have been fed -- quoting other sources presented by other Greek Dictionaries -- around and around they all go -- what is interesting is the truth is quoted then a false assumption is made. His Name is seen and quoted -- YaH and YH -- and then replaced with JESUS. Why replace it the Name we already have, a Name that dates back before the Birth of our Savior. And the replacement name is only around 400 years old from its creation, and the name, if followed from the Latin, is different again, dating backward another few hundred years, but still nothing close to the original Birth Name. Why replace what already exists, and why replace it with a completely different name?This site is a great source themselves, repeating what is available or accepted as scholarship in the world. They are a wonderful reference source, but all serious Bible students or seekers of truth, need to be aware that a certain blindness still exists, and it is our responsibility in "rightly dividing the word of truth". I used their presentation only as an example for what we find in the World. They are only quoting from the quotable.

Email Comments to: dan@servantsofyahshua.comMy Comment: The Hebrew/Christian Bible is filled with examples of His Name -- so, why do they and others change it? Not only it is changed visually, but the hearing as well. The example found are all in one of three forms, #1 - ...iah #2 - ...jah and #3 - ... yah. Not one of these are found as presented in the name, Jesus -- in appearance and not in sound, or phonetic value. How, then, is the false name linked up to His True Identity? It isn't, it is merely assumed, or said that it is either out of and organized deception, or total ignorance -- both are wrong and neither correct.
