New Testament Verses
And she will bear a son, and you shall call His name Jesus, for it is He who will save His people from their sins. (Matthew 1:21)
Jesus is the Greek equivalent of the Hebrew name Joshua (Num.13:16), which means Jehovah the Savior, or the salvation of Jehovah. Hence, Jesus is not only a man but Jehovah, and not only Jehovah but Jehovah becoming our salvation. Thus, He is our Savior. He is also our Joshua, the One who brings us into rest (Heb. 4:8; Matt. 11:28-29), which is Himself as the good land to us. (The New Testament Recovery Version, Matthew 1:21 footnote 1, Living Steam Ministry)
