The original Greek of the New Testament uses the name Ἰησοῦς (Iēsous), a rendition of the Hebrew Yeshua. As in Greek, Iesus in Latin was declined as an athematic stem (u-stem). {| ! Latin Iesus ! ! ! Greek Iēsous ! | Nominative Iesus Nominative Ιησους Genitive Iesu Genitive Ιησου Dative Iesu Dative Ιησου Accusative Iesum Accusative Ιησουν Vocative Iesu Vocative Ιησου Ablative Iesu Locative Iesu Locative Ιησου |} ------------------------- The name of Jesus in Aramaic is Eashoa'. Roughly translated into English as "salvation," from the best resources I can find.

How many names Jesus have in the bible?

In Hebrew, Jesus' name would have been Yeshua Ben Joseph. At the time of His birth, it was the custom among Jews to name their children according to lineage. Therefore Jesus was named 'Yeshua son of Joseph'. Yeshua (yeh-SHOO-ah) in Hebrew means salvation. From gravesites of the area, the name 'Salvation' was a common one.The travel of the Name throughout the various languages gives us Jesus. From the Hebrew Yeshua, it went to the Greek Iesus. From the Greek it went to the Latin Iesu, and from the Latin Iesu, it went to the English Iesus. The J was not invented until the Middle Ages, so the current spelling Jesus was not available until about 1500.Note that each language has it peculiarities according to grammar. The Greek ending of 'sus' denotes male, much like the pronoun 'he', so the transliteration from Hebrew to Greek is consistant within the boundaries of each language.Other names:Bread of LifeKing of KingsLord of LordsSon of ManLambLionJehovahSaviorMessiahGood Shepherd
