S2E5: From Ahaz to Jesus: Immanuel - God in the Flesh or Sign of God’s Favour?
In this episode, we examine the prophecy of “Immanuel”—“God with us”—from Isaiah 7:14 and how the Gospel of Matthew connects it to Jesus.
Does this title establish Jesus as Yahweh in human form, or does it highlight God’s saving presence through an empowered Messiah?
We explore the historical context of Isaiah’s prophecy, its immediate fulfillment in Judah, and its ultimate realization in Christ. Join us as we unpack whether “Immanuel” indicates a literal incarnation of God or a powerful sign that God is with His people through His chosen Servant.
