Answer 2

In Search Of The True Savior

If Christian scholars would conduct a truly unbiased study of the Holy Scriptures concerning the prophesied Savior, they would find, as many who seek Scriptural truth have, that the prophesied Savior is NOT the savior proclaimed by the Christian world today.

The prophesied Savior did indeed come, and He actually did live and die, as the prophets accurately foretold. The true Savior, according to Scriptural prophecy, would have lived and died before the temple and the city of Jerusalem were destroyed in 70 c.e.

We will study Volumes One and Two of the Book of Yahweh, which are commonly known as the Old and New Testaments; concerning the prophesied Savior Who the prophets and apostles presented to us.

We will also study the so-called savior Christianity promotes. Most importantly, we will enable the reader to learn, from his very own Bible, the identity of the true Savior.

Let us first examine the prophesied Savior the prophets and apostles proclaimed—the true Savior.






The Name Of The Savior Presented By The Prophets

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

One of the first things we should learn in our search for the true Savior is His Name. The importance of knowing this Man's Name cannot be overstated. Names were and are very important to the Hebrew people, and their meanings are of great significance, not only to individuals, but also to entire families.

The name Jesus is an invention of man which in no way carries the meaning of the true Name of this Man mentioned in the New Testament. The simple fact (which is easily proven from authoritative sources) is that this man was born a Hebrew and He had a Hebrew name. There is no such name as Jesus in the Hebrew language.

Reading from The Encyclopedia Judaica, Volume 10, page 10, we find that the supposed name Jesus is actually the common Greek form of the Hebrew name Joshua.

JESUS (d. 30 c.e.), whom Christianity sees as its founder and object of faith, was a Jew who lived toward the end of the Second Commonwealth period.

THE NAME, BIRTH, AND DEATH DATE OF JESUS. Jesus is the common Greek form of the Hebrew name Joshua. Jesus' father, Joseph, his mother, Mary (in Heb. Miriam), and his brothers James (in Heb. Yaaqob), Joses (Yahseph), Judah, and Simon (Mark 6:3) likewise bore very popular Hebrew names.

The Encyclopedia Judaica, Volume 12, page 805, gives us additional information, concerning the Hebrew spelling of Joshua, which is yod-heh-waw-shin-ayin.


This source also points out to us that this Name, correctly pronounced Yahshua, is a compound name constructed with the Tetragrammaton,which is the Name: YAHWEH, . The Name Yahshua follows the common practice among the true worshippers of Yahweh, in forming and using compound names which brought glory to Yahweh's Name.

The Jewish Encyclopedia, Volume 9, page 153, tells us this about compound names which glorify Yahweh:

A distinctive characteristic of Bible onomatology is the frequency of composite names, which form at times even complete sentences, as in the case of Isaiah's son Shear-jashub (="the remnant shall return").
In the majority of cases these composite names are theophorous, referring to, or actually mentioning...the name of YHWH.


The Interpreter's Dictionary, Volume 3, page 505, tells us:

There is an increasing tendency, especially in the 7th Century b.c. to use compound names which state a fact or express a wish... The most numerous are names compounded with 'YAH'... which number over 150 and are almost entirely personal or family names.

The Name Yahshua is just such a compound Name. It is a combination of Yahweh's Name in a personal name (YAH: yod-heh) and SHUA (shin-ayin), which means salvation. The Hebrew-English Lexicon of the Old Testament, by Brown, Driver, and Briggs, page 221, tells us that the Name Yahshua means Yahweh is salvation.


The Hebraic Tongue Restored, by Fabre d'Olivet, page 462, gives us this information concerning the Hebrew word, shua. We find that this word comes from the word yasha:


Gesenius' Hebrew-Chaldee Lexicon To The Old Testament, page 811, tells us:


The Hebrew-English Lexicon of the Old Testament, by Brown, Driver, and Briggs, page 447, tells us about the word yasha.


Thus we have + (yod-heh-waw-shin-ayin). This name is correctly pronounced YAH-SHU-A, since the letter waw in this compound is silent, just as The Hebraic Tongue Restored, by Fabre d'Olivet, pages 112-113, tells us.
