This gal is way off base and does not understand the transliteration process and issues that arose from transliterating ancient Hebrew and Aramaic to Greek, Latin and eventually English.
The modern-day spelling and enunciation of the Name Jesus is an artifact of transliterating the letter Y. In Greek the closest transliteration was the letter J which has the phonetic enunciation of the Yah sound.
Direct translation to English which does contain the letter J would be Joshua - pronounced Yashua.
So, if anything, the power of the name of Christ Jesus has been watered down due to incorrect enunciation and spelling.
None the less I believe the power of the belief in the name can overcome enunciation and spelling.
Also, she has no idea what she is taking about concerning Melchizedek. Hebrews 7:17 refers to Christ as a high priest after the order of Melchizedek. Who was the instructor to Abraham, also mentioned in Psalms. Implying that just as Melchizedek was of a higher priesthood than Abraham and was indeed his instructor, Christ was of a higher priesthood than Aaron and the Levitical priesthood.
And finally, her demonizing of the Old Testament names of God such as EL and Yahweh are the exact arguments of Gnostic heresy.
Not the first Gnostic garbage I've seen on this board, unfortunately. Very hard to listen to, it breaks my heart that people are stuck so close to knowing Christ. I agree that God honors our "mispronunciation" of the poorly transliterated name "Jesus". It wouldn't make sense for him to be on his throne ignoring prayers because we're saying the J sound wrong...
Thank you for the review! Yes, all very accurate (except I trust you mean the J comes from Latin not Greek; in Greek it's iota). There are a couple cases where pagans abuse titles like El to attribute them to their idols, but these are responsive to those being already titles that properly apply only to the one God and Lord.
The video creator, White Ranger, requests prayers to Jesus for healing from chronic kidney disease. Yes, Lord, we ask you to heal and also to explain your nature to her more adequately, in Jesus's name, amen.
I would like for you to show me where you found the name yeshua in reference to it being used in place of the name jesus. I couldn't find anything on https://www.sefaria.org/texts
The largest trove of texts on the matter cannot prove your claim. Ill save you the time and effort.
The Strong's exhaustive concordance to the King James Bible gives the exact spelling of every word in the original texts in Hebrew, Greek and Aramaic and its transliteration. All preserved for scholarly researchers.
If you have never used this 135-year-old research tool created by 100 scholars over a 10-year span between 1880 - 1890 then you have not really done your due diligence in researching the word of God. I bought my first copy in 1989 and it has been invaluable.
I don't have a copy on hand however this site seems like it might match with what you're referring to. Doing a search for 'Yeshua' returned no results.
Edit: I genuinely want to know and I'm fully prepared to stand corrected if I'm wrong.
Edit: additional info from this site
"Modern technology renders Strong's original concordance obsolete, since a computer can duplicate Strong's work in a fraction of a second. However, Strong's Hebrew and Greek lexicons are still used today as a reference tool, and Strong's original numbering system of Hebrew and Greek words has become the standard for original language reference in study of the Bible. This site duplicates most of the original content of Strong's Concordance with a word search as well as a lexicon search. Words in the Concordance search are linked the lexicon entries."
You are using it wrong, type in the search word Jesus and it will pull up 942 verses containing the word Jesus. In the left column it shows you the lexicon and that out of 942 references there were 33 separate words in their various written languages and word forms that were then transliterated to into Jesus. Each of those 33 original dialect word forms has a reference number and can be further researched individually.
I suggest getting a subscription to the Logos library systems if you are seriously interested in scholarly Bible research. (they have a 30-day free trial) researching off of google can be misleading. In my old version of the Logos systems (486x days) you could click on any word in the KJV and it would pull up the Strong's references and more, it was a truly valuable tool for research, writing sermons, doing studies, etc.
Also, I make mistakes as well, as pointed out by another poster I mistaking said Greek when I meant Latin and the letter J in Latin came from the Greek iota, which you will see in the Strong's search.
Ok i see it says that the hebrew refeference to Jesus on that site is yehoshua basically Joshua. I think its important to point out that the jews did not believe in Jesus. They believed in this crap.

Yes you are making the mistake of using a diluted expression of the name of Jesus. Its fine. Hebrew roots is BS and you guys are simply larping
Ok i see it says that the hebrew refeference to Jesus on that site is yehoshua basically Joshua. I think its important to point out that the jews did not believe in Jesus. They believed in this crap.

So any reference to a Hebrew expression would not meet the intention of that word because they literally hate him and killed him.
Edit: the God they (hebrew speaking jews) think is God right now happens to be satan (spoiler alert)
