the Essene (they still exist today), a group of Jesus' early followers, calls Jesus by the following names: Yeshu, Eesho,Eesa?These names are aramaic and that the language Jesus spoke. So why do people thnk rhat the Quran is wrong when it calls Jesus by the name Eesa?
P.S im not muslim just curious.

We Assyrian Christians (first group of people to accept Christianity) call Jesus Eesho, we also call God Allaha, as stated in the Bible.

Yes, Jesus is the translation of the name in English, Yasou' or Eisa can be the Arabic translation.. But when we say that the Quran is wrong it is not because it translated the name as Eesa.. it is because it didn't declare Jesus as the Messiah, the son of God. It didn't acknowledge him as the redeemer but just as a prophet.
(Although there is a strong debate that even the Quran indirectly acknowledge Him as the one who will judge ppl & the only one that gave life back, but that is a debate for another time)

The Essenes were not followers of Jesus.There were a secret underground religious CULT.It is rumored Jesus joined that cult
but I will not believe that.Jesus was a teacher .If Satan himself could not get to Jesus , I am certain the Essenes could not.

2 facts
The Churches resolution to find the world ugly and bad has made the world ugly and bad
Far more crimes and child abuse have been committed by zealots in the name of God. Jesus and Mohammed than has ever been committed in the name of Satan.
Most people hate these statements but very few can argue it.

Yes. I don't think it's wrong. Jesus didn't even call Himself "Jesus." That's just an English translation of His name. For all I care, Jesus could have called Himself "Fluffy." It wouldn't change the Truths He taught one way or the other.

there are many names which various religious belief systems call the man known as JESUS by. there are none which are more correct than others simply because of the variety in languages we have today in comparison to the Ancient Times. thank you as others have said for this valuable information.
