When did the name jesus first appear in the Bible?

Answer 1

Well, honey, the name "Jesus" first appeared in the New Testament of The Bible, specifically in the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. It didn't pop up in the Old Testament because, well, Jesus wasn't around back then. So, if you're looking for some Old Testament Jesus action, you're out of luck!

Answer 2

The name Yeshua, which translates Jesus or Joshua, was first used when Joshua was introduced as the leader of the Israelites.

Edited by What.it.is on 6/5/10:

The name Jesus first appeared in the King James Version revision of 1769, 241 years ago as an anglicized transcription of the Latin name Iesus (KJV of 1611) which is a translation of the Greek name Ieousus which is a transliteration of Yahusha (pronounced Yahoo-sha).

These are the modern English letters for the Hebrew symbols for the name of the anointed one: YHUSHA

A:Matthew's Gospel is the first book in the New Testament and is therefore the first book in the Bible to mention Jesus, at verse 1:1.

15 And I will put enmity

Between you and the woman,

And between your seed and her Seed;

He shall bruise your head,

And you shall bruise His heel."
