- Jesus Meaning
- English form of Ιησους (Iesous) , which was the Greek form of the Aramaic name (Yeshu'a). Yeshu'a is itself a contracted form of Yehoshu'a (see Joshua). Yeshua ben Yoseph, better known as Jesus Christ, was the central figure of the New Testament and the source of the Christian religion. The four Gospels state that he was the son of God and the Virgin Mary who fulfilled the Old Testament prophecies of the Messiah. He preached for three years before being crucified in Jerusalem. Jesus originates in Hebrew language and means "God"s deliverance". It is based on the same roots as the name Joshua. Jesus was the main Christian figure and a major Islamic prophet. As a masculine given name it has gained a lot of popularity in the United States recently.
