Let us then suppose that Greek-speaking Jews already had substituted Jesus for the Hebrew name. When I was teaching in the Valley a thousand years ago, one of my students was "George" Gonzalez. His earlier school record, said "Jorge." I asked him about it and he said he had just gone with the flow.

Let us then suppose that Greek-speaking Jews already had substituted Jesus for the Hebrew name. I don't place any significance on whether his name was translated or transliterated. It is the teachings concerning him that are the issue, not his name.
