Why the Jews cannot accept the name Yahweh/Yeshua as God, Jesus and Lord? |
I was surprise and could not understand why until much later I found out the following information. We urge all readers to check the scripture before accepting any information as true. Some of these are may not be correct. Write to me if you think this is so.
The difference between translation and transliteration
J.e.s.u.s. is a trans-LIE-ation over all and a very poor transliteration of i.e.s.u.s.which is Latin.
Did you know there was a demon idol by that name it was called e.s.u.s.,they both sound the same,ee-zeus, and by the way the is the idol that the
Jesuit's are named after.J.
e.s.u.s. has the sound of ge-zeus. Think about that!You can pick up almost any Dictionary and you will be able to find this information.
Eliyah gave his account: So you think a name isn't important?
My View
I have a sense Jesus sound quite strange because the Chinese transliterate as "Yeshu" not "Jesus". Some people don't even know so call "Jesus" is a Jew because his name is not a Jewish name. I ask my Indian friend who speak Malayam, how to you call Jesus in Malayam. She said "Yeshu" . This sound closer to Hebrew name Yeshua. I ask myself why this two name Yeshu/Jesus so differ but I have no way of getting any answer until 1990 when I came across a cassette that has a name Yeshua that caught my attention. When I got my Internet account in 1995, I went all out to search out for that name to get more information.
I found out in Hinduism religion from our the library here, the word Lord is Lord Krishnan, his father experience crossing the open sea similar to the crossing of red sea where Lord Krishnan was save and became great.
I have done a search on the following and would like show you what I have found.

Information about Greek gods and myths
I have studied Greek History before and know that there is such an idol name Zeus sound so similar. I have include the following links that would give better understand about the Greeks and relationship with the Bible.
The Greek are famous with their many gods. You can read the book call "The Odyssey/Odysseus" it is very popular stories until today and their greatest god is Zeus known as king of all Gods (Jupiter), his daughter was Athene (goddess of wisdom/Education). I am not surprise that the Greek sees Yahweh/Yeshua as like unto Zeus (God of Jupiter) and might have unwittingly borrow names from their own idol gods' name to replace the Hebrew name of Yahweh and Yeshua. I wasn't comfortable and no peace. In addition to that some people give their name as Jesus. Well you go through the links below and decide for yourself. I am in not position to judge.
