Tell me something I do not know
I can at least read that in many bibles. I cannot read the name Jesus which you posit anywhere in the Old Testament for the name of God
(smile) ...... in the OT, it's under the statement used in, "MY SALVATION".
Now, lets get to the stumbling-block itself, out of the way. some counter claim on Jesus name by saying that there is no J in the Hebrew language, so our Lord’s name could not be JESUS, that’s true, NO, not in Hebrew. Neither... Letters like 'j, e & v'. they weren't invented until the 17th century. so let's clear up this, letter "J", stumbling-block. our, Revelation 19:12 "His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and
he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself. 13 And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God”. question, who, not what is the new name God?. Revelation 2:17 "He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the hidden manna, and will give him a white stone, and in the stone a new name written, which no man knoweth saving he that receiveth it". that he, are us who are saved. now the Lord Jesus. Revelation 3:12 " Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more out:
and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, which is new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God:
and I will write upon him my new name". as we see in Revelation 19:12 "His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself". that day of not knowing is over. that's the reason for the book of revelation. from the standpoint of the time this Revelation was written, yes, no man knew God's new name but he himself. why?. because he is the Alpha and the Omega. he knows the end. so by knowing that in the end times, that the English language will be the dominant language to come. only he knew that the name Jesus will only be known in the last days by this dominating language. just as other kingdom arose and with them, their language dominated. understand, his NEW NAME, no Hebrew knew at that time, so, the new name of (H3442) YESHUA is now JESUS... NOTICE "NEW" NAME, not "ANOTHER" NAME. but the SAME NAME, only now NEW, WHY? because it's a transliterated name into the NEW DOMINANT language of today... ENGLISH. same NAME, but now NEW.
so who knew the mind of God back then. answer, "no man", that's right, NO MAN KNEW, but he himself, (not even John the writer of Revelation). and it cannot be the name in use at the time of John writing, BECAUSE THERE WAS NO LETTER "J" IN HIS LANGUAGE AT THAT TIME. so God who is the future, knows the end time name, JESUS is the NEW NAME which is now, we're in the last days. how do we know this, because the Bible, God's word say so. Hebrews 1:1 "God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, 2 Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds". so, we're in the LAST DAYS.... notice "S" at the end of days.
now, let's see JESUS NAME revealed in the New Testament. Matthew 1:21 "And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS:
for he shall save his people from their sins". now is this God name,?. Matthew 1:23 "Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is,
God with us". Now the name, JESUS, he shall save. what did Isaiah, by the LORD GOD say 35:4 "Say to them that are of a fearful heart, Be strong, fear not: behold, your God will come with vengeance, even God with a recompense;
he will come and save you". in Hebrew the name Jesus is, Yeshua, meaning, EHEYEH asher EHEYEH, or I AM THAT I AM that saves. Isaiah 43:11 "I, even I, am the LORD; and beside me there is no Saviour". Lets see this name clearly. in Hebrew, it is "YESHUA". the Strong's # is (H3442), and it is written Yod-Shin-Vav-Ayin, it is a masculine noun that means "He is salvation" or "He saves”. for only God SAVES. In the Greek, it's G2424 Ἰησοῦς Iesous (ee-ay-sous`) n/p.
NOTE: 101G is using the Mickelson's Enhanced Strong's Dictionaries of the Greek and Hebrew Testaments for this definition,
G2424 Ἰησοῦς Iesous (yee-sous') n/p.
1. (meaning) He is Salvation, Yahweh saves (i.e. the Savior).
2. (person) Jesus (i.e. Yeshua, Yehoshua), the name of our Lord, also called the Last Adam.
3. (person) Joshua (i.e. Yehoshua) an Israelite, the servant and successor of Moses.
4. (person) Jeshua, also called Justus, an Israelite, a coworker with Paul.
5. (NOTE) (“Jesus” is a valid English transliteration, coming from Ancient Hebrew to Koine Greek (via the Septuagint) to Latin to Old English to Modern English. It is completely acceptable to God (
Yahweh) for us call upon the Savior's name as “Jesus,” or “Iesous,” or “Yeshua,” or even “Yesu” as in Christian Arabic or in the Fijian Islands, et al. God prepared for all nations to be able to trust in the Savior and to call upon his name by preparing a language dialect for international use: the Hebraic-Koine Greek. Thus, technically and formally, the pronunciation “Iesous” was intentionally established by the Savior as the common basis for Jewish and Gentile acknowledgment of his Redemption and Salvation, going forth as needed into every tribe, native tongue, people, and nation. “Yeshua” is of course delightfully acceptable to him, when it is not used as an exclusionary name. Love edifies).
6. (NOTE) (Revelation 3:12).
[of Hebrew origin (H3442 as the shortened form of H3091)]

of Hebrew origin?, from H3091, which gets its orgins from H3068 which originates from H1961 הָיָה hayah, or “I AM”, which the LORD told Moses in his asking “WHAT” is your name. here again we see that YHWH is used as a verb in describing “WHAT” the Lord JESUS is. “I AM”, which is the subject, as our grammar definition states is not the personal name. Isaiah 52:6 "Therefore my people shall know my name: therefore they shall know in that day that I am he that doth speak: behold, it is I". when did God speak so that they knew that it was him, (GOD), answer, John 8:21 "Then said Jesus again unto them, I go my way, and ye shall seek me, and shall die in your sins: whither I go, ye cannot come. 22 Then said the Jews, Will he kill himself? because he saith, Whither I go, ye cannot come. 23 And he said unto them, Ye are from beneath; I am from above: ye are of this world; I am not of this world. 24 I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that
I am he, ye shall die in your sins". here clearly we see God plainly telling them that he, JESUS is “I”. listen again even from a different scripture, Isaiah 43:10" Ye are my witnesses, saith the LORD, and my servant whom I have chosen: that ye may know and believe me, and understand that
I am he: before me there was no God formed, neither shall there be after me”. how plain can one get. John 8:28" Then said Jesus unto them, When ye have lifted up the Son of man, then shall ye know that I am he, and that I do nothing of myself; but as my Father hath taught me, I speak these things”.
So by being no "J" at that time, true, there was no "J" in the Hebrew language, but there is a "J" now, in the English language. which is the dominant language of these last DAYS. Glory to the Lord Jesus. and God say that he will not give his "GLORY" to another. Isaiah 48:11 "For mine own sake, even for mine own sake, will I do it: for how should my name be polluted? and I will not give my glory unto another". listen to Jesus, John 17:5 "And now, O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee before the world was". so there is only one God and that means only one GLORY. and if Jesus is another as in G2087 heteros, as oppose to being G243 allos with God, then God lied in Isaiah 48:11, God forbid. so the only conclusion is that Jesus is God in flesh as the G 243 allos with God. and the name of God, both the Father, and Son is JESUS.
for Isaiah was Correct. Isaiah 35:4 "Say to them that are of a fearful heart, Be strong, fear not: behold, your God will come with vengeance,
even God with a recompence; he will come and save you."
that SALVATION is in the Name of YESHUA/JESUS. let's see it in the OT. Psalms 18:2 "The LORD is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in whom I will trust; my buckler, and the horn of
my salvation, and my high tower."
MY SALVATION: H3468 יֶשַׁע
yesha` (yeh'-shah) n-m.
יֵשַׁע yesha` (yay'-shah)

and who "SAVE"? "GOD" Isaiah 35:4 "Say to them that are of a fearful heart, Be strong, fear not: behold, your God will come with vengeance, even God with a recompence; he will come and save you."
and "WHO" is the NAME that "SAVES" YESHUA.
H3442 יֵשׁוַּע Yeshuwa` (yay-shoo'-ah) n/l.
1. he will save.
2. Jeshua, the name of ten Israelites, also of a place in Israel.

understand TomL, the NAME "YESHUA" was hidden under the OT, WHY? because he had not come in flesh yet...... meaning ...... in "PERSON". (smile)this is just to easy.
