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. Matthew 1:23
“ ‘Immanuel’ — This lovely name of Messiah is, in effect, the Alpha and Omega of Matthew's gospel.
It is there in chapter 1: 'They shall call his name Immanuel... God with us.'
And the last words of the gospel are, 'Lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the world.’ ”
H.A. Whittaker
