The name Jesus, as we know it in English, is derived from the Greek form \u00e1\u00bc\u00b8\u00ce\u00b7\u00cf\u0192\u00ce\u00bf\u00e1\u00bf\u00a6\u00cf\u201a (I\u00c4&quot;sous), which itself is a rendering of the Hebrew name \u00d7\u2122\u00d6\u00b5\u00d7\u00a9\u00d7\u0081\u00d7\u2022\u00d6\u00bc\u00d7\u00a2\u00d6\u00b7 (Yeshua) or \u00d7\u2122\u00d6\u00b0\u00d7\u201d\u00d7\u2022\u00d6\u00b9\u00d7\u00a9\u00d6\u00bb\u00d7\u0081\u00d7\u00a2\u00d6\u00b7 (Yehoshua) (Gruselier, 1904, pp. 428\u2013428).
