It is used in the Hebrew Bible to refer to several individuals, most notably Joshua, the son of Nun, who succeeded Moses as the leader of Israel and led them into the Promised Land. In post-exilic times, Yeshua is also the name of a high priest who returned with Zerubbabel to rebuild the temple (Ezra 2:2).<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>The name Yeshua was common in the Second Temple period and is the Hebrew name for Jesus of Nazareth. In Jewish tradition, names were often given with the hope of reflecting the character or destiny of the individual. The name Yeshua, meaning "salvation," underscores the role of Joshua as a deliverer of Israel and prophetically points to Jesus Christ as the ultimate Savior.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>(Aramaic) corresponding to <a href="/hebrew/3442.htm">Yeshua</a> and <a href="/hebrew/3091.htm">Yehoshua</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>a high priest after the Bab. captivity<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>Jeshua (1).<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Strong's Exhaustive Concordance</div>Jeshua <p>(Aramaic) corresponding to <a href="/hebrew/3442.htm">Yeshuwa'</a> -- Jeshua. <p>see HEBREW <a href="/hebrew/3442.htm">Yeshuwa'</a> <div class="vheading2">Forms and Transliterations</div>וְיֵשׁ֣וּעַ וישוע veyeShua wə·yê·šū·a‘ wəyêšūa‘<div class="vheading2">Links</div><a href="/interlinear/matthew/1-1.htm">Interlinear Greek</a> • <a href="/interlinear/genesis/1-1.htm">Interlinear Hebrew</a> • <a href="/strongs.htm">Strong's Numbers</a> • <a href="/englishmans_greek.htm">Englishman's Greek Concordance</a> • <a href="/englishmans_hebrew.htm">Englishman's Hebrew Concordance</a> • <a href="/texts/matthew/1-1.htm">Parallel Texts</a></div></div><div id="centbox"><div class="padcent"><div class="vheading">Englishman's Concordance</div><b><a href="/text/ezra/5-2.htm" title="Biblos Lexicon">Ezra 5:2</a> </b><br><a href="/interlinear/ezra/5.htm" title="Hebrew">HEB:</a> <span class="hebrew3">בַּר־ שְׁאַלְתִּיאֵל֙ <b> וְיֵשׁ֣וּעַ </b> בַּר־ יֽוֹצָדָ֔ק</span><br><a href="http://biblehub.com/nas/ezra/5.htm" title="New American Standard Bible">NAS:</a> of Shealtiel <span class="itali">and Jeshua</span> the son<br><a href="/kjvs/ezra/5.htm" title="King James Bible with Strong's">KJV:</a> of Shealtiel, <span class="itali">and Jeshua</span> the son<br><a href="/interlinear/ezra/5-2.htm" title="Biblos Interlinear Bible">INT:</a> the son of Shealtiel <span class="itali">and Jeshua</span> the son of Jozadak<p><i><a href="/hebrew/strongs_3443.htm">1 Occurrence</a></i><br /><br /><b><a href="/hebrew/strongs_3443.htm">Strong's Hebrew 3443<br>1 Occurrence</a></b><br><br><a href="/hebrew/veyeshua_3443.htm">wə·yê·šū·a‘ — 1 Occ.</a><br></div></div></td></tr></table></div><div id="mdd"><div align="center"><div class="bot2"><table align="center" width="100%"><tr><td><div align="center"> <script id="3d27ed63fc4348d5b062c4527ae09445"> (new Image()).src = 'https://capi.connatix.com/tr/si?token=51ce25d5-1a8c-424a-8695-4bd48c750f35&cid=3a9f82d0-4344-4f8d-ac0c-e1a0eb43a405'; </script> <script id="b817b7107f1d4a7997da1b3c33457e03"> (new Image()).src = 'https://capi.connatix.com/tr/si?token=cb0edd8b-b416-47eb-8c6d-3cc96561f7e8&cid=3a9f82d0-4344-4f8d-ac0c-e1a0eb43a405'; </script><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-2'> </div><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-0' style='max-width: 300px;'> </div><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-3'> </div><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-1' style='max-width: 300px;'> </div><br /><br />  <div align="center" id='div-gpt-ad-1531425649696-0'> </div><br /><br /> <ins class="adsbygoogle" style="display:inline-block;width:200px;height:200px" data-ad-client="ca-pub-3753401421161123" data-ad-slot="3592799687"></ins> <script> (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); </script><br /><br /> </div> <div id="left"><a href="/hebrew/3442.htm" onmouseover='lft.src="/leftgif.png"' onmouseout='lft.src="/left.png"' title="3442"><img src="/left.png" name="lft" border="0" alt="3442" /></a></div><div id="right"><a href="/hebrew/3444.htm" onmouseover='rght.src="/rightgif.png"' onmouseout='rght.src="/right.png"' title="3444"><img src="/right.png" name="rght" border="0" alt="3444" /></a></div><div id="botleft"><a href="#" onmouseover='botleft.src="/botleftgif.png"' onmouseout='botleft.src="/botleft.png"' title="Top of Page"><img src="/botleft.png" name="botleft" border="0" alt="Top of Page" /></a></div><div id="botright"><a href="#" onmouseover='botright.src="/botrightgif.png"' onmouseout='botright.src="/botright.png"' title="Top of Page"><img src="/botright.png" name="botright" border="0" alt="Top of Page" /></a></div><div id="bot"><iframe width="100%" height="1500" scrolling="no" src="/botmenubhchap.htm" frameborder="0"></iframe></div></td></tr></table></div></body></html>
