Please Is There Any Other Jesus In The Bible Apart From Jesus Christ And Bar-jesus?
I Was Confused When I Saw Something Related To That In The Book Of Colossians 4:11 It Says,

And Jesus, Which Is Called Justus, Who Are Of The Circumcission. This Only Are My Fellow-workers To The Kingdom Of God, Which Have Been A Comfort Unto Me.

Is This Really Jesus Christ? Is It Another Jesus? Or Could It Be Bar-jesus Who Repented And Had His Name Changed?
Please Am Really Confuse And Need Explanation

Who Is This Other Jesus Paul Is Talking About??

The name ‘Jesus’ is just the latinized form of Iesous in Greek and Yeshua or Joshua in Hebrew. The man who succeeded Moses also bore the same name[Deuteronomy 31:3 compare Acts 7:45] but written and addressed in the Hebrew tongue. So the name was very common amongst the Jews and the person being referred to at Colossians 4:11 bore the same name. Paul wasn’t referring to the Christ in the concluding part of his letter.

iHe is not.."justus" was used to distinguish him from his master.he was one of the several christians at rome mentioned by paul.

Jesus wasn't the only person by that name....

The name is the same as Joshua....


That's why Jesus the son of Mary is referred to as Jesus Christ of Nazareth....

He was simply mentioning those that helped him in the ministry. The verse already told you who the Jesus was (Justus).
