Yeshua is the original Hebrew proper name for Jesus of Nazareth.

In Hebrew Yeshua means both "Salvation," and the concatenated form of Yahoshua, the "LORD who is Salvation." The name Jesus has no intrinsic meaning in English, except as it is known as His name.

Messianic Jews believe Yeshua to be the Messiah of Israel and God in the flesh, who will come again to deliver Israel from their persecutors.
