Yeshaeyah
and Jeshaiah
A personal name meaning 'Yahweh has saved' or 'salvation belongs to Yahweh.' It primarily functions as a theophoric given name, found among different individuals in the Hebrew Bible. Most notably, it is the name of the prophet Isaiah, son of Amoz, active during the 8th century BCE. The name also appears for several other Israelites in genealogical lists, not all of whom have major narrative roles. The semantic range is tied to the affirmation of deliverance or salvation attributed to Yahweh.
