"Yeshua" ישוע , a Hebrew name written with the letters yod-shin-vav-`ayin of the Hebrew alphabet. Yeshua (Hebrew: יֵשׁוּעַ, romanized: Yēšūaʿ ) was a common alternative form of the name Yehoshua (יְהוֹשֻׁעַ, Yəhōšūaʿ, 'Joshua') in later books of the Hebrew Bible and among Jewish people of the Second Temple period.
Jesus (/ ˈ dʒ iː z ə s /) is a masculine given name derived from Iēsous (Ἰησοῦς; Iesus in Classical Latin) the Ancient Greek form of the Hebrew name Yeshua (ישוע).

Joshua the son of Jehozadak (Hebrew: יְהוֹשֻׁוּעַ Yəhōšūaʿ ), also spelled Yeshua or Jeshua (Hebrew: יֵשׁוּעַ Yēšūaʿ ) was the first High Priest during the reconstruction of the Jewish Temple after the return of the Jews from the Babylonian Captivity.
Likewise Yeshu Ha-Notzri is the modern Hebrew equivalent for "Jesus the Nazarene" although in Christian texts the spellings Yeshua (i.e. "Joshua") and Yeshua Ha-Notzri [citation needed] are preferred, as per the Hebrew New Testaments of Franz Delitzsch (BFBS 1875) and Isaac Salkinsohn (TBS 1886).
