Re: What is up with the different spellings of Jes
Hey, why are you worried about the different spellings of Jesus. Very little else on AFF is speelled right!!! For instance.... how many folks have misspelled "altar" by spelling it "alter?"
Yes! I am aware we are talking about different things. I'm not that stupid!

Re: What is up with the different spellings of Jes
I wonder what the Klingon word for Jesus is.... And if you were to be baptized in that name, would it count?

If "JESUS" was good enough for Paul and Silas, it's good enough for me.

I have read that when Tyndale translated his original English from Greek version he dropped the "s" as did the next several early English versions.
They were using Yesu pronounced as Yay soo.
The name Jesus was not known in those days.
