Strong's Lexicon Yehoshua: Joshua Original Word: יְהוֹשׁוּעַ Word Origin: Derived from יְהוָה (YHWH, the Tetragrammaton for God) and יָשַׁע (yasha, meaning "to save" or "to deliver") Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G2424 (Ἰησοῦς, Iēsous): The Greek equivalent of Yehoshua, used in the New Testament for Jesus Christ. Usage: The name Yehoshua means "Yahweh is salvation" or "The LORD saves." It is used primarily as a personal name in the Hebrew Bible, most notably for Joshua, the son of Nun, who succeeded Moses as the leader of the Israelites and led them into the Promised Land. Cultural and Historical Background: Yehoshua is a significant figure in the Hebrew Bible, known for his role in the conquest of Canaan. As Moses' assistant and successor, Joshua is depicted as a faithful servant of God, exemplifying leadership, courage, and obedience. The name itself reflects a deep theological truth central to the Israelite faith: that salvation and deliverance come from Yahweh. The name Yehoshua is also the Hebrew form of the name Jesus, highlighting the continuity of God's salvation plan from the Old Testament to the New Testament.
