A new book explores the Hebrew name Yahshua, revealing its meaning “Yahweh saves” and the biblical roots of the name of Jesus.
EAST BRUNSWICK, NJ, UNITED STATES, March 11, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — A newly released book, Yahshua: The Hebrew Name of Jesus, offers readers a profound biblical and theological exploration of the name by which the Savior of the world was revealed. The book examines the Hebrew roots of the name “Yahshua,” showing how it expresses the central message of the Gospel: “Yahweh saves.”
Drawing deeply from the Hebrew Scriptures, the New Testament, and the writings of the early Church Fathers, the book traces the meaning, history, and theological significance of the name given to the Messiah. It explains how the name of Jesus is rooted in the Hebrew language and how it connects directly to the divine Name of God revealed in the Old Testament.
The work demonstrates that the name Yahshua is not merely a linguistic curiosity but a proclamation of the saving action of God. As explained in the book, the name itself declares the mission of the Messiah—God’s saving presence revealed in Christ.
Through fifteen carefully structured chapters, the book explores:
• The biblical theology of names in Scripture
• The Hebrew roots and meaning of the name Yahshua
• The relationship between the names Yahweh and Yahshua
• The announcement of the name by the angel in Matthew 1:21
• The journey of the name from Hebrew to Greek and modern languages
• The proclamation of the name among the nations
• The role of the Holy Spirit in revealing the saving name of Christ
The book also highlights how the early Church understood the name of Jesus as the revelation of God’s saving work in history.
By restoring the Hebrew meaning of the name Yahshua, the book seeks to help readers rediscover the unity of the Old and New Testaments and to understand more deeply the identity and mission of Jesus Christ.
The author writes that the purpose of the work is not to impose terminology or change liturgical practice, but to restore the biblical meaning of the name and deepen faith in the Savior whose name proclaims that Yahweh saves.
