    who is Esaias in verse 23? Shouldn"t that be Isaiah?

    Greetings, Daphne.

    Yes, Esaias is Isaiah.

    From Strongs Concordance...

    Hsaias

    hay-sah-ee'-as

    Of Hebrew origin [H3470]; Hesaias (that is, Jeshajah), an Israelite: - Esaias.

    When I search the Old Testament using "H3470" it returns Isaiah.

    So the King James scholars translated the Greek word in John 1:23, Hsaias as Esaias. Same guy, Isaiah.

    I'm not loosing any sleep!
