Emmanuel

Emmanuel

Immanuel is a religious term that means God is with us. From the Christian Bible.

Source background

Isaiah the prophet named a child in the days of King Ahaz (Isaiah 7:14). In Ahaz's life, the prophecy was realized in a short time, because when Ahaz's enemies were defeated, the child was still a doll (Isaiah 7:16, compare 7:1). The child Isaiah was referring to was probably Hezekiah, Ahaz's unborn son, who later became one of the greatest kings of Judea. When Isaiah prophesied, Hezekiah's mother was a virgin, but Hezekiah was not born into a virgin. He can be called "Immanuel" because he believed in God more than any king of Judea before or after (2 Kings 18:5). God showed that he was with Hezekiah when he defeated the Assyrian Army (1 Kings 19:35).

Bible

Jesus was born

The name of "Emmanuel" is found in Christmas cards and poems. Christianity believes that when Jesus was born, God told Joseph in a dream that Mary was going to have a son. People should call him Immanuel (Matthew 1: 23), which means that God is with us. As early as 700 years ago, the prophet Isaiah predicted that the son of a virgin would be called Immanuel (Isaiah 7:14), who was the Savior of the Jews. Therefore, Christianity believes that the name of Manelli explains the purpose and method of Jesus' birth.

From the Bible

prophesy

"Behold, a virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and his name shall be Immanuel." (Emmanuel turns out that God is with us.) Source: Matthew 23

Note: the name of Jesus is given by God, and Emmanuel is called by people, which means that God is with us. The Savior Jesus is God with us. He is God, and God is incarnate and lives among us. (about a year) He is not only God, but also God with us.

Many parents choose their children's names early before they are born, and each name is carefully selected and combined by parents from dictionaries or other ways, which contains profound meaning and parents' expectations for their children. Our God also prepared a suitable name for Jesus before he was born. Besides this name, our Jesus has another name called "Emmanuel".

The birth of a new baby is a happy thing for the whole family, but the birth of Jesus represents salvation, which is related to the whole human race. In fact, when it comes to Emmanuel, we must tell a story about him. More than 2000 years ago, the baby was born in the world, but before Jesus was born, angels came to Mary to give her good news. The angel said to Mary, "you are going to have a baby, and people in the future world will call him Immanuel" (Matthew 1:23). So in addition to the name you and I are familiar with, Jesus is also known as the presence of God.

Virgin Mary pregnant Jesus before marriage

This is the story of the birth of Jesus Christ: his mother Mary had been betrothed to Joseph, and before she married him, Mary conceived from the Holy Spirit. Joseph, her husband, was a righteous man. He did not want to humiliate her openly, but wanted to divorce her secretly. While he was thinking about this, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream. And he said, "Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid, but take Mary your wife, for she is pregnant from the Holy Spirit. She is going to give birth to a son, and you shall call his name Jesus, because he will save his people from their sins. " All this was done to fulfill the word of the Lord through the prophet, saying, "a virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and his name shall be called Emmanuel." "Emmanuel" means "God is with us." And when Joseph awoke, he arose, and took his wife, as the angel of the LORD commanded him: but he lay not with her, until she bare a son: and he called his name Jesus.
