I "share" it with what scripture says.
Iēsou - Definition: Jesus; the Greek form of Joshua; Jesus, son of Eliezer; Jesus, surnamed Justus.
>>Can you explain to me how translators have replaced the name Jesus with the non Greco, roman Latin name Joshua in acts 7:45 and Hebrews 4:8?<<
Because they were referencing a long known individual from the Old Testament known to all as Joshua.
transliterate - to transcribe (a word, etc, in one alphabet) into corresponding letters of another alphabet: the Greek word λογοσ can be transliterated as ``logos''
In Acts 7 and Hebrews 4 they were referring to a known Hebrew man so stayed with the Hebrew understanding of who that person was. In the New Testament they were referring to a New Testament individual.
Yeshua (ישוע, with vowel pointing יֵשׁוּעַ yēūă in Hebrew) was a common alternative form of the name יְהוֹשֻׁעַ ("Yehoshuah" Joshua) in later books of the Hebrew Bible and among Jews of the Second Temple period. The name corresponds to the Greek spelling Iesous, from which, through the Latin Iesus, comes the English spelling Jesus. [Ilan, Tal (2002).

>> Why the need to change those two verses with the sacred names of Jesus with the unholy name of Joshua?<<
Unholy name? Joshua meant and still means "Yahweh saves" as does the transliteration into English.
If you want to go down the name trail explain to me why the angel said to call Him Iēsoús when is Isaiah 7 it said His name would be Immanuel? Are you in error not calling Him that?
I like the english name Joshua..
It allowed me to see how that is the true English transliteration of the hebrew Aramaic name for the Messiah instead of having to jump into Greek/roman Latin/ transliterations like those translators did with such ease in those two places , quickly deleting the name Jesus for the english name..
I speak English,, not Greek or Latin... (unlike Rome) so it is a welcome thing to see the English name that is prevalent in the old testament for the Hebrew Messiah make its way into the english new testament..
There is some harmony with the high priest Joshua or the Hebrew general Joshua leading Israel into the promised land like Joshua the Messiah will do.
It isn’t an issue with anyone without a concordance or without an early print bible that keeps the name ‘Jesus’ in those two places..
In fact, it would seem like a nothing kind of thing except to someone who was testing and proving ALL things Rome says and does..
And it made me wonder how a Torah observant Hebrew mother named ‘Mary’ would come down here and lie and than point to a Greco roman Latin name for her son when she knew what His real name is.. and she used a name that didn’t exist while she walked the earth..
But again, I was testing from a disproving Mary and Rome point and not from a place trying to reinforce my deeply held faith and beliefs that that Mary confirms in the name Jesus..
I am glad the name Joshua made its way into the newer new testaments.. it wasn’t in my 1599 Geneva bible, certainly not a pro catholic bible edition.
The Joshua of the old testament was a shadow for the new testament Joshua.. the Messiah of Israel.
The beauty of a good counterfeit is the words are not going to be different.. they will look exactly like the genuine.. they will not have different sizes like monopoly money..
The deeds and actions are no different with the Jesus in christendom or the Joshua outside of Christendom..
But the worship is...
And imagine Satan counterfeiting and having his own savior that does nothing but hides the True Messiah from the world..causing the world to actually worship the enemy all the while proclaiming to be God himself.. just one big lie..
I don’t have to imagine it.. I see it in Christendom..
You don’t... we will see at some point..
I don’t have any problem seeing the papacy as the seat of the Antichrist nor seeing the Greco roman Latin Jesus they have created thanks to traditions, as the Antichrist.. a substitute, instead of, in place of, just like my concordance says is possible with the Greek word anti...
That is why I went to study how the name Jesus could be expplained away..
and those two scriptures did it... not something someone would search out unless they are trying to see why the name Jesus is so important to Rome and their mary...
