     Praise God! I have heard that some of the rabbis changed the name
of yahoshua in the Talmud as an expression of disapproval. Is this true?
If it is can you shed any light on how rabbinal jews view our Savior?

     Thank You

       In the Talmud Yeshua/Jesus is mentioned as YESHU. YESHU is a 
Hebrew acronym which means "May his name be forever blotted out of 
our remembrance".  If you have been on the Internet and spoken with 
Orthodox Jews on various newsgroups, they will often refer to Jesus 
as YESHU. YESHU is a very derogatory term.
