3. 马太福音 Matthew 1
这整件事的发生,是要应验主借着先知所说
的: 23“ 必有童女怀孕生子,他的名要叫以马
内利。”以马内利就是“ 神与我们同在”的意
思。
22
22 All this took place to fulfill what the Lord had said
through the prophet: 23 “The virgin will conceive and
give birth to a son, and they will call him Immanuel”
(which means “God with us”).
4. 基本上,名字的意义是捕捉和传达了
一个人、品牌或团体的本质或品质。
Essentially, a NAME is significant in the sense that it
captures and communicates the very nature or the
qualities of the person or brand or organization.
上帝拣选了以马内利
GOD CHOSE EMMANUEL
5. 以赛亚书 Isa 7
14 因此主自己必给你们一个兆头:看哪!必
有童女怀孕生子;她要给他起名叫‘以马内利’
。 14 Therefore the Lord Himself will give you a sign:
Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a Son, and
shall call His name Immanuel
6. 以赛亚书 Isa 9
6 因为有一个婴孩为我们而生,有一个儿子赐
给我们;政权必担在他的肩头上;他的名必
称为“奇妙的策士、全能的 神、永恒的父、
和平的君”。
For unto us a Child is born, Unto us a Son is given;
And the government will be upon His shoulder.
And His name will be called Wonderful Counselor,
Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
