Bible Q

How many times is the name Jesus in the Bible?

In the ESV, “Jesus” occurs 925 times, all in the New Testament.  The only book of the New Testament that does not contain the name Jesus is 3 John.

The number is slightly different in each version because of variations in the ancient manuscripts and because the translators will sometimes choose to insert a name in place of a pronoun to make the passage clearer.
