Yeshua, spelled יֵשׁוּעַ (Yēšūă‘) or ישוע in Hebrew was a common name among Jews of the Second Temple Period, and is thought by some scholars and religious groups to be the Hebrew or Aramaic name for Jesus. In modern Hebrew, Yeshu (ישו) and Yeshua (ישוע) are in fact the common transcriptions for Jesus. The name Yeshua is extensively used by Messianic Jews and Hebrew Christians, Rastafarians, explained by the Rastafari movement, as well as other Christian denominations, who wish to use Jesus' Hebrew name.
