Isaiah 7:14
Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.
Meaning
“God with us”
From the Hebrew Immanu’el (עִמָּנוּאֵל): im (with), nu (us) and El (God). Matthew translates it himself: “God with us”. Emmanuel, Manuel and Manuela are forms of the same name.
In the original:עִמָּנוּאֵל ʻImmânûwʼêl · Strong H6005
Immanuel is the name of the sign Isaiah announced to King Ahaz: a virgin would bear a son. Matthew reads the prophecy in the birth of Jesus — in him, God is with us.
Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.
Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us.
