Jesus
Iesous identifies the person named as Christ, Lord, Son of God, and the one who died and rose in the cited passages.
The cited forms identify one named person across narrative, proclamation, confession, prayer, and instruction. The verses variously associate him with Christ, Lord, God’s Son, suffering and rising, saving sinners, guiding believers, and coming from heaven, but these are contextual descriptions of the same referent rather than separate lexical senses.

The named person in Christian proclamation and address · dominant
Across the supplied verses, the noun names the same person in clauses of proclamation, confession, and address. In Acts 17:3 the APB renders a clause identifying this person as the Christ being proclaimed; in 1 Corinthians 2:2 it renders Paul’s stated focus as “except Jesus Christ and this one crucified”; and in 1 John 4:15 it renders confession that Jesus is the Son of God. The nominative, accusative, genitive, and dative singular forms occur as the clause requires, without showing separate meanings.
In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB commonly presents the name within combinations such as “Jesus Christ,” “Lord Jesus,” and “Christ Jesus,” while other clauses use “Jesus” alone. These surrounding titles and descriptions show the verse-level presentation rather than separate translations of the lemma.
