Jesus or Joshua? Why Your Bible Hides the Truth in Plain Sight

If the name Jesus is an English transliteration of Yeshua then why isn't Joshua, Moses' successor, named Jesus, too?
Why does the Bible call one “Joshua” and the other “Jesus”… when they’re actually the same name?
In this eye-opening episode, we uncover the surprising reason Joshua—Moses’ assistant and the leader who brought Israel into the Promised Land—is never called “Joshua” in the New Testament. Instead, the Bible calls him… Jesus.

If you’ve ever read Acts 7:45 or Hebrews 4:8 and assumed they were talking about Jesus Christ—you’re not alone. But what if the name itself has a deeper story? One that traveled through Hebrew, Greek, and Latin… and reveals something powerful that’s been hidden in plain sight?

We’ll explore:

The original Hebrew name: Yehoshua (יְהוֹשֻׁעַ)
How it became Iēsous in Greek and “Jesus” in English
Why English translators chose to separate “Joshua” from “Jesus”
What this means for our understanding of Scripture today
👀 Once you see it, you can’t unsee it.
