"Ἰησοῦς" meaning in Ancient Greek

See Ἰησοῦς in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Proper name

IPA: /i.iˈsus/, /i.iˈsus/, /i.e̝ˈsus/ (note: 1ˢᵗ CE Egyptian), /i.iˈsus/ (note: 4ᵗʰ CE Koine), /i.iˈsus/ (note: 10ᵗʰ CE Byzantine), /i.iˈsus/ (note: 15ᵗʰ CE Constantinopolitan)
Etymology: Hellenized form of Semitic proper name roughly equivalent to Ἰησοῦ (Iēsoû) + -ς (-s); Hellenic case suffixes added to an approximated Greek literal phonetic rendering of Aramaic יֵשׁוּע (Yēšū́ʿ, “Jesus”) and Biblical Hebrew יֵשׁוּעַ (Yēšū́a, “Jesus” or “Joshua”), a syncopated relative of Biblical Hebrew יְהוֹשֻׁעַ (Yĕhōšúa, “Joshua”); ultimately can be traced to Paleo-Hebrew primitive root Biblical Hebrew 𐤉𐤔𐤏 (y-š-ʕ, “to deliver, save”).
