The name of Jesus prophesied by Moses - Deuteronomy 31:3

Jesus’ name in Hebrew is pronounced the same as the Hebrew word for Joshua who appeared in the Old Testament.

Joshua in the Old Testament who leads the people into the promised land foreshadows Jesus (pronounced Joshua in Hebrew) leading the resurrected into the promised land of heaven.

Deuteronomy 31:3 clearly states that “The LORD your God, he will go over before you and it also states Joshua, he shall go over before you, as the LORD has said.

Thus allegorically the LORD your God, who will go over before you is Joshua (Jesus). So Moses is the prophet who gives the name of Jesus (pronounced Joshua in Hebrew) as the Lord your God who will go over before you.

Deuteronomy 31:3 The LORD your God, he will go over before you, and he will destroy these nations from before you, and you shall possess them: and Joshua, he shall go over before you, as the LORD has said.
