What’s in a Name? How Biblical Names Were Changed (Yeshua, James, Mary and More)

Have you ever wondered why the names in your Bible—Jesus, James, Mary—sound so different from their Hebrew originals? In this eye-opening episode of True Word, Faith for LIFE!, Dr. Shawn Michael Greener, a Follower of the Way, takes you on a journey through history and language to uncover:

•How Hebrew names were changed in Greek, Latin, and English translations

•Why Yeshua became “Jesus” and Ya’akov became “James”

•How political and church traditions shaped the names you know today

•Why restoring these names draws you closer to God’s covenant promises

📖 Scripture: Exodus 3:14, Proverbs 22:1, Philippians 2:9-10 (CJB)
