What is the meaning (definition) of christ in hebrew

Christ comes from christos, the Greek equivalent of the Hebrew term "messiah" (mashiach). Both words literally mean "Anointed One."

yeshua means savior
Actually, yeshua means "being saved". In the havdalah service, we refer to god as "my savior" -- yeshu'ati. As a word on its own, yeshua is a noun but not a person.

As for the Hebrew asked for originally, as posted, Christos is the greek for "anointed one" and the Hebrew for that is "mashiach" as applied to high priests and kings -- ones who had been anointed with the shemen hamishchah.

Its not Yeshua it is Yahushua. It means gods salvation. Yah means god it is very important to put that in there!! Gods name is YAHUVEH. Which means god saves. The holy spirit is RUACH HA KODESH

Yeshua is the Aramaic form of the name. Since Jesus spoke Aramaic, I suspect he was fine with that pronunciation.

I don't know where you got that pronunciation or translation of the divine name, but you're wrong on both counts. We don't know how it was pronounced, because the vowels have been lost in the mists of time. We also don't know what it means because there's not another word in ancient Hebrew remotely similar. Speculations abound, and they're all a waste of time.

The truth is, God doesn't care what we call him. Paul preferred "Abba" which is Aramaic for "daddy." When we cry out in desperation, it doesn't matter if we say God, Lord, Daddy, or Hey You, he just likes to hear from us. Anybody who tries to tell you different is selling something.

As for the original question, Wondergirl is correct. "Christ" is the Greek form of "Messiah," both of which mean "anointed one."

Try reading any bible Act 4:12
"Nor is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.

YOU GO AHEAD AN KEEP CALLING OUR SAVIOR "god" & "Jesus" probable not going to lead you to salvation based on this verse. The letter "J" was created 500 yrs ago, couldn't be Jesus. Greeks were furious and the agnostics mystic Babylon socioty then hijacked the teachings to change the name to Hail Zeus. Witch traslated into Iesous in Greek is ( ie= hail sous=son )

if you want to take this to the next step and search even deeper into root words, Isuse or Hsoos in hebrew means "the horse" in ancient prophesy "the horse" represents , war, judgment, death. This representation of "The Trojan Horse" is the prophesy of the Babylon Trojan horse that was given as a gift for the destruction of the faith and religion. So the greatest deception that Lucifer has accomplished, the entire world is praying to a pagan deity . Remember Act4;12

Everybody stop accepting information at face value. Most people who are leading these days are lost themselves and because they are such public figures and even confronted with the truth its too late for them to turn back for fear of too much investment and embarrassment. Get eduacted and resurech , seek your savior.

Wouldn't it be something if we found that all the terms used to denote the creator and his son were pertaining to Baal? Like god, lord, christ and jehovahjireh. Just something to think about.

I use Yahweh and Yahshua for the most part, but then also father, creator and savior.

Greetings!

In the book of Deuteronomy Chapter 18 verses 18-19, God said that He will send a prophet like Moses. The prophet’s task is to speak the words God has put in his mouth and to reveal His true Name. God commanded us to listen to this prophet only. This prophet is Mr. Eraño Evangelista. Read the messages that God revealed to him in the Bible for our generation in this site :

Www.thename.ph

Know the real Name of God and the real Jesus (The truth in the Bible is that he is not the Son of God but an offspring of David and God punished him for his wickedness-which Jesus himself admitted) that all religions failed to teach us. It does not propose a new religion but it only reveals the true message of God for our generation. Disastrous events will continue to happen all over the world, for the people to realize that the world is cursed. These will only stop when they accept and acknowledge the true Name of God.
Thank you.

I don't accept anyone in this generation as the prophet named in Scripture That prophet was the messiah, Jesus Christ in the english language, His name is Yeshua, and it is blasphemy to associate his name with false gods like Zeus. This name is used for God in both the old testament and the new where he clearly says I am your salvation. We need no further revelation.

The Scriptures tell us clearly what will happen to this Earth, It will be destroyed and the reward for those who believe is to be with God

Thank you for your indepth searching of the scriptures "where in you think you have salvation".

I would have you to know that merely reading scriptures will get you a lack of understanding! We are to search and search and search, but you and countless others rely on things not understood.

I am talking about Babylon and Nimrod and how Israel sacrificing their children to Baal (lord) and Baal (lord gawd) also given to us as lord god. Most all bibles have replaced the true name with these. No we don't sacrifice our offspring, but we still, unaware, trust in a god or lord. Not understanding the severity or the recompense. In judgement you will tell the creator, well it was written in MY bible that way. What will he say, "depart from me ye workers of iniquity, I never knew you". You may say why then is it in the bible? Well I will just say this one thing, the spiritual understanding is a mystery and is given to "such as should be saved". This babylon worship will not end until all power is broken.

He was and is certainly the Son of God, the only begotten. He was punished for our wickeness not His!

The Aramaic word for God is Elah, I like that as my Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ spoke it.
The Messiah knows his children and will separate the sheep from the goats.

Jesus and Joshua have the same Hebrew name. It was Joshua who led the Hebrew people into The Promised Land,just as Jesus will take us to the Heavenly Promised land. Joshua was a "type" or "shadow" of Jesus Christ. So,since the Old Testemant was written in Hebrew,Jesus and Joshua would be pronounced the same in Hebrew... Yeshua.

This whole site is nonsense... If God wanted us to know his name or follow some path... why does he create riddles? Then you have many people who translate the riddle according to what "they" think. The whole concept is absurd. We are stupid humans and stupid humans require simple answers.

This is the most outlined comment I have ever read. At the beginning I thought you were anti-Christ but at certain level it like you are a believer who has gotten the wrong message

Hey everybody,
It really don't matter much what the name of Christ is or was, or how it is pronounced, Christ has a new name!

Rev 3:12 "He who overcomes, I will make him a pillar in the temple of My God, and he shall go out no more. And I will write on him the name of My God and the name of the city of My God, the New Jerusalem, which comes down out of heaven from My God. And I will write on him My new name.

The first encounter in the bible that we see in Exodus 3:13-15-
Moses said to God, " Suppose I go to the Israelites and say to them. The God of your fathers has sent me to you and they ask me, What is his name? Then what shall I tell them?" God said to Moses, "I AM WHO I AM. This is what you are to say to the Israelites: I AM has sent me to you."
God also said to Moses, "Say tot he Israelites, The Lord the God of our fathers--the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob-- has sent me to you. This is my name forever, the name by which I am to be remembered from generation to generation.

Exodus 6:2
God also said to Moses, I am the Lord. I appeared to Abraham, to Isaac and to Jacob as God Almighty, but by my name the Lord I did not make myself known to them.

Jesus is I AM---John 8:58
"I tell you the truth, Jesus answered, before Abraham was born, I am!"
Isaiah 9:6b
"... And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.

Hey Momajojo31,


God said to Moses, "I AM WHO I AM.

I AM WHO I AM is the perfect answer to what our God's name is. His name is what He is, and there is many names of our God, there are some that have been used on this post, God is what he is, but God has a name that is His Seal (Rev 7) and( Rev 14). This is also the name that those of Christ are kept in. This name is also is who and what He is.

John 17:6 "I have manifested Your name to the men whom You have given Me out of the world. They were Yours, You gave them to Me, and they have kept Your word.

John 17:11 "Now I am no longer in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to You. Holy Father, keep through Your name those whom You have given Me, that they may be one as We are.

John 17:12 "While I was with them in the world, I kept them in Your name. Those whom You gave Me I have kept; and none of them is lost except the son of perdition, that the Scripture might be fulfilled.

John 17:26 "And I have declared to them Your name, and will declare it, that the love with which You loved Me may be in them, and I in them."

Our God's name is very important to know, and you will if you belong to Christ.

In the Kingdom of God, we are to be Kings, and as Kings we are to seek and search out the things our God has concealed.

Rev 1:6 and has made us kings and priests to His God and Father, to Him be glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen.

Proverbs 25:2 It is the glory of God to conceal a matter, But the glory of kings is to search out a matter
