OK. My question would be is what would a person named Joshua be called if they went to Israel? Also, that's kind of petty if Jewish people won't use the name because it was Jesus's. I mean, to them, Jesus was just some preacher.
Well, considering that the Hebrew language does not have a hard 'J' sound, and they have to substitute a 'Y' sound........
I don't know what the Ultra-Orthodox folks think, but I've never heard of any problems.
Jesus wasn't just some preacher to the Jewish authorities in the first and second centuries. From their point of view, Jesus and his followers hijacked and perverted their whole religion. They went so far as to alter some of their scriptures to make the connections with Jesus of Nazareth less clear.
