Transliteration: `Immanuw'el

Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew words עִם (im, "with"), אֲנַחְנוּ (anu, "us"), and אֵל (El, "God").

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: G1694 (Ἐμμανουήλ, Emmanouel)

Usage: The name "Immanuel" means "God with us." It is used in the Hebrew Bible to signify the presence of God among His people. The name is a prophetic sign of hope and divine intervention, indicating that God is actively involved in the lives of His people, providing guidance, protection, and deliverance.

Cultural and Historical Background: In the context of ancient Israel, names held significant meaning and often reflected divine attributes or promises. The name "Immanuel" appears during a time of political turmoil and uncertainty for the Kingdom of Judah. The prophet Isaiah delivered this name as a sign from God to King Ahaz, assuring him of God's presence and protection despite the threats from surrounding nations. This assurance was crucial for maintaining faith and trust in God's sovereignty and covenant promises.
