Jesus (/ ˈ dʒ iː z ə s /) is a masculine given name derived from Iēsous (Ἰησοῦς; Iesus in Classical Latin) the Ancient Greek form of the Hebrew name Yeshua (ישוע). [1] [2] As its roots lie in the name Isho in Aramaic and Yeshua in Hebrew, it is etymologically related to another biblical name, Joshua.
The Aramaic name is a transliteration of Ṭḇīthā, the female form of טביא (Ṭaḇyā). [53] Both names mean 'gazelle'. It may be just coincidence that Peter's words to her in verse 40, "Tabitha, get up!" (Ταβιθᾶ ἀνάστηθι), are similar to the "talitha kum" phrase used by Jesus. In Aramaic, it could be טביתא.

The Aramaic original New Testament theory is the belief that the Christian New Testament was originally written in Aramaic. There are several versions of the New Testament in Aramaic languages: the Vetus Syra (Old Syriac), a translation from Greek into early Classical Syriac , containing most—but not all—of the text of the 4 Gospels, and ...
Later, Aramaic references to the Hebrew Bible adopted the contracted phonetic form of this Hebrew name as an Aramaic name. The name יֵשׁוּעַ , Yeshua (transliterated in the English Old Testament as Jeshua), is a late form of the Biblical Hebrew name יְהוֹשֻׁעַ , Yehoshua (Joshua), and spelled with a waw in the second syllable.
There have been a number of proposals as to the origin and etymological origin of the name Jesus. [16] The name is related to the Biblical Hebrew form Yehoshua`(יְהוֹשֻׁעַ ), which is a theophoric name first mentioned in the Bible in Exodus 17:9 referring to one of Moses' companions and his successor as leader of the Israelites.
