You really major in missing the point about JESUS don’t you. There is no scriptural attestation to any different name. You are an obvious pridemonger. All the festivals point to qualities and actions of JESUS. But you can’t see that, you adhere to a Jewish “Yeshua” who is infatuated with rituals.

There was an excellent reason for Him to go to the Hellenistic Jews and then outright to Gentiles (who were also called Greeks). And then to have the New Testament published in Greek. It was to shame the pride of Jewish religion mongers, who preached their rituals as the means of salvation and never could fathom that the rituals were telling the story of the Savior.

That is complete nonsense. Yeshua is the name as shown by the original Hebrew of Matthew (all lines thereof).

He didn’t go to any hellenistic Jews, because there weren’t any. You need to study the Maccabees to get all the mythology out of your system.

No one preached ritual as a means of salvation until the catholic church was created in the 4th century. The OT writings are even clearer than the NT as to the need for the grace of YHVH to be saved. Even the Pharisees knew that their Takanot and Ma’assim could not bring salvation.
