Joseba as a biblical name

In the Luther Bible , the name Josheba, the daughter of King Joram , was reproduced as Joseba until the spelling of the Loccum guidelines was adopted . This spelling is homonymous with the Basque first name Joseba ; the biblical names Josef and Joscheba are derived from different radicals (יוסף, or יהושבע), so they have different origins.
