# Yeshua (יֵשׁוּעַ): A Hebrew Personal Name Based on the lexical data provided, יֵשׁוּעַ (Yeshua) is a Hebrew proper noun designating a specific individual named Jeshua. The lemma appears only once in the biblical text, making it a singular occurrence rather than a term with varied contextual applications or theological development across multiple passages. The term functions as a personal name rather than a common word with semantic range or metaphorical usage. Without additional lexical data regarding etymology, related forms, or the specific biblical context of its single occurrence, the analysis is limited to identifying it as a Hebrew name form. The designation "Jeshua" represents how this name has been conventionally transliterated and recognized in English biblical tradition. Given the constraint of a single occurrence in the biblical corpus, this entry provides identification of the name rather than insight into patterns of usage or theological significance that would typically emerge from multiple attestations across different biblical passages and contexts.
