Greek primacists favoring certain anciet texts
#73
Quote:Yeshu' explains the reason why we get our English's Jesus instead of Joshua. For example, there are some stupid ignorant people out there who are making wild speculations that Jesus is derived from JeZEUS. These ignorants have no knowledge of the origin of the name Jesus in English.

Jesus has nothing to do with Zeus. Jesus is Jesu just like Barnabas is Barnaba and Cephas is Keepha, because the suffix S is not required in English.
You're succumbing to a logical fallacy, Dan. You're assuming that because the S suffix is not present in Hebrew/Aramaic that all of a sudden, Hebrew/Aramaic has no suffix. You're also speculating that the translation of the name has more weight than the original name itself. I challenge you to find a single use of 'Yeshu' in which it is not used as a slanderous acronym.

Furthermore, the LXX translates Joshua into Iesou without the S suffix, vindicating my argument, since the German word 'Jesu' comes from the GNT: Iesous, just without the Greek suffix. Check it for yourself.
