rayww,
Now around 1600 years ago, the Greek bible , that was translated from the Hebrew, was translated into Latin. There was no [j] then. So the Greek, eeaysooahs, was rendered [Iesus].
Then around the time of the printing press in around 1500, the J was established and the Greek Iesus, which came from the Hebrew, Yeshua,or Yahushua, was printed as [jesus]. Men with the name Yohan were now called John.
