By the way, did you know :
The name Joshua is a compilation of two elements. The first element is 
, which is the commonly accepted abbreviated form of 
, which is YHWH, the Name of the Lord.
The second part of the name comes from the verb 
(yasha 929), be saved, delivered. Derivations (yesha 929a) and 
(yeshua 929b) both mean salvation. Derivation 
(shoa 929c) indicates a ‘free man,’ meaning an independent person.
BDB lists 
under and reads Yah Is Salvation. NOBSE reads Yahweh Is Salvation.
The name Joshua is the Hebrew form of the Greek name Jesus, and most probably the name by which Jesus was known by His contemporaries. Jesus was fascinated by the Book of Isaiah, probably mostly because this Book appears to be entirely about Him, but perhaps also because the name Isaiah (
) is almost identical to the name Joshua with the two segments reversed.
