In Modern Hebrew you write an English /j/ sound with a gimel and an apostrophe (called "chup chik' in Hebrew). For Biblical Hebrew, however, the /j/ in names like Joshua represents a yod (similar to /j/ in German-think of the name Johann)

Yes, and the reason is because Jesus begins with J and for the hebrew it is so sacred that they do not even dare to write it.....
I lreaned this from the Antonio Banderas movie Body of Christ...by the way it´s a great movie....I recommend it.

I think they use "y" For instance God's name is Jehovah, but in Hebrew it is spelled "Yaweh" (Y instead of J.)

Actually, I thought the "j" was a "Y" in Hebrew -- Yehovah? Maybe not . . .
