- Isus (Protestant/Cornilescu spelling)
Jesus
CRITICAL spelling note, not doctrinal: Romanian Orthodox Bibles use ‘Iisus’ (double-i, reflecting the Greek Ἰησοῦς transliteration through Church Slavonic tradition), while the Cornilescu Protestant translation uses ‘Isus.’ This Language Package standardizes on ‘Iisus’ per Orthodox Synodal Bible convention given Romania’s Orthodox-majority audience, while noting ‘Isus’ as the expected form in Evangelical/Protestant-facing material.
