Jesus is no less Hebrew than James or Judas.
You already just said Jesus = Joshua, so how is all of a sudden Jesus a Greek name?.
If you really want someone to believe your line, show the Greek source for the name Jesus that does not come directly from the Old Testament, or other Jews named also from that same old testament character.

Who told you that??? Iesous is pronounced (ee-YAY-soos). The sounds letters make is called "phonics", and the application of that is called "phonology". Hebrew and Greek have no phonetic sounds for a J as we do in English.

There was a "j" sound, just not a written "j". The written letter "i" could have the "i", "y", or "j" sound. Which sound was used depended on the next letter. The written "j" was created to help make it less confusing to know which sound is used.

That's completely wrong. I already linked Greek phonology in the other thread. And you're especially wrong about the name Iesous, which is pronounced (ee-YAY-soos). Here is Greek phonology again:
Koine Greek Phonology.

You are getting your info from antichrist sources. Their goal is to wipe out the true name of God. The truth is, there was a "j" sound that the Hebrews got from the Egyptians.
YHWH is Aramaic, not Hebrew. It has no connection to God and is used in Babylonian witchcraft.

Your sources are wrong.
Uh, aramaic was the common language of Israel . . .

Uh, aramaic was the common language of Israel, hebrew was the religious language. Jesus spoke aramaic.

In debate what you just said is called "arbitrariness". It's meaningless to just arbitrarily assert something as a fact statement that is unsupported. Where is your source?

Aramaic is a Babylonian language.

How does that affect the question?

(Anyway, it isn't Babylonian in origin. It resembles later Arabic in being the language of desert tribes who overran Babylonia.)

The gospels contain, unchanged, remarks made by Jesus in Aramaic.
Originally posted by truejew
Do you have an original gospel, written by the original author with his own hand to prove Jesus spoke those remarks in Aramaic?

The manuscript evidence that Jesus made these remarks in Aramaic is identical to the manuscript evidence that he said anything at all.
In other words, once you start setting aside the gospel evidence, you've got no reason for believing that Jesus ever existed.
Your approach to this evidence marks you out as a falsifier, apparently inspired by the spirit of antichrist.
