Description
Of all names none is more precious in Christian ears than the name Jesus. From the end of the first century it expressed a deepseated Christian sentiment of veneration and worship. In itself, however, it is a personal name significant by reason of its meaning. It transcribes the Greek which was used for the Hebrew Jeshua, a shortened form of Jehoshua (Joshua), "He whose salvation is Yahweh", or, more briefly, "God's salvation". - p. 5.
