 I've seen those Jews for Jesus ads too.  But aren't they forgetting
something?  Wasn't what people spoke in that region at that time Aramaic?
If that was the case, Jesus/Yeshua/Y'shua probably spoke it too.  And I
think I've seen transliterations(presumaly from Aramaic)into Yasua or
something similar.  But don't quote me on any of this.  It's *way* beyond my
level of expertise. . . .
