Yehoshua bin Nun (not "ben"), is the full Hebrew name of Joshua, who was the chief disciple of Moses (Numbers ch.27) and who led the Israelites into the Holy Land (Joshua ch.3-4). He lived 3250 years ago.

More info:

"Bin Nun" and "Ben Nun" (the Hebrew prefix)both mean 'SONof Nun'. (Numbers 11:28)(Deuteronomy 1:38)(Joshua 1:1). Nun, Joshua's father, was the son of Elishama of the tribe of Ephraim (1 Chronicles 7:20,26+27).

Just FYI, the term 'Bar' was the Aramaic prefix for the word 'son' (such as in Barnabas-meaning 'Son of Comfort'(Acts 4:36))
