Which also our fathers that came after brought in with Jesus into the possession of the Gentiles, whom God drave out before the face of our fathers, unto the days of David;
Note 16 at Ac 7:45: Given the context, this is no doubt speaking of Joshua of the O.T., not our Lord Jesus Christ. "Jesus" was derived from "Joshua," "Jesus" being Greek and "Joshua" being Hebrew, and the name Joshua means "Jehovah-saved" (Strong's Concordance). The Jesus spoken of in Heb 4:8 is also a reference to the O.T. Joshua.
