Joshua 1:2, j = ayin, ` = alef, v = vav, Yshua = Joshua (not Jesus 
Christ, although I'm not sure about "yeshua" in the e-mail address).

"qvm" is neither "through" not "over" but "arise" or "get up". The 
question might really be about "jbr", which is "cross" without 
specifying whether "through" or "over".
