Yehoshua is a masculine name of Hebrew origin and is the original form of the names Joshua and Jesus. It combines the elements 'Yeho,' referring to God, and 'shua,' meaning 'salvation' or 'deliverance,' thus translating to 'God is salvation.' This powerful name carries profound religious significance in Jewish and Christian traditions. While the anglicized form Joshua is quite common, Yehoshua remains closer to its ancient Hebrew roots, making it popular among those maintaining traditional Hebrew naming practices. The name appears throughout the Hebrew Bible, most notably as Moses' successor who led the Israelites into the Promised Land. Yehoshua continues to be used in Jewish communities worldwide.
