Actually, it's the other way around.
Joshua is an Old Testament typological character of Jesus in the New Testament.
(Jesus (Greek) in the Hebrew would be Joshua, or J'shua, meaning "Jehovah is salvation.")
[Moses as "the Law" could not take the Israelites into the Promised Land. But Joshua, as "Jehovah is salvation", usher the people into the land.
What the commandments cannot do for mankind, Jesus does for those who believe on Him. ]
