Feb 4, 2023 at 17:57 | comment | added | Lesley | @mlchristians - I bet his mum and his brothers and sisters called him Jesus. As has already been pointed out, strangers and/or enemies, have referred to him as Jesus of Nazarteth, in order to differentiate him from the thousands of other men called Jesus. And, as Nigel J has pointed out, the demons knew exactly who Jesus was. | |
Feb 4, 2023 at 17:48 | comment | added | user60376 | @KenGraham Is there an instance, that you know of, when He is verbally addressed simply, as Jesus, by His enemy or a stranger? Thanks. | |
Feb 4, 2023 at 16:35 | comment | added | Ken Graham♦ | @mlchristians But Pilate addressed Jesus by name in writing. Your question does not express that it had to be verbal only! | |
Feb 4, 2023 at 15:27 | comment | added | user60376 | Again, I am looking for an instance where someone who is either an enemy of or a stranger to our Lord "addressed" Him, simply, as Jesus---as recorded in a Catholic Bible. Perhaps no such instance exists; in which case, perhaps someone will confidently state that. | |

Feb 4, 2023 at 15:19 | comment | added | Anne | @mlchristians The name 'Jesus' was very common, so that the area such a named individual came from was a necessary inclusion for identification, especially for legal matters (such as an execution). The written sign placed above Jesus' head on the cross was what Pilate had written in 3 languages, so that everyone passing by would know exactly who this person was. The wording came from Pilate. John merely reported it, being an eye-witness to the crucifixion himself. | |
Feb 4, 2023 at 15:15 | comment | added | Adam | That is false...john is simply recounting a written statement made by Pilate. It does not matter that John believed he was Jesus in this instance. You are plucking at straws now. | |

Feb 4, 2023 at 15:10 | comment | added | user60376 | This depicts not an enemy referring to our Lord as "Jesus", but the Gospel writer, John. | |
