Yeshua Gematria

Yeshua gematria refers to the numerical value of the Hebrew name Yeshua (ישוע), which is a common Hebrew name meaning "salvation" or "deliverance." In gematria, a form of Jewish mysticism that assigns numerical values to Hebrew letters, the name Yeshua is calculated as follows: Yud (10) + Shin (300) + Vav (6) + Ayin (70) equals 386. This numerical value is often explored in Kabbalistic and messianic contexts, where it is sometimes associated with other significant numbers or names in Jewish tradition. The name Yeshua is also transliterated into Greek as Iesous and into Arabic as Yasua (يسوع), though these transliterations do not carry the same numerical significance as the Hebrew original. In Christian contexts, the name Yeshua is often rendered as "Jesus," but the gematria calculation is specific to the Hebrew form.
