What does the Bible say about the names Jesus and Emmanuel?

Answered in 1 source

The names Jesus and Emmanuel signify His dual role as Savior and God with us.

In Matthew 1:21-25, God instructs that the Savior's name should be Jesus, meaning 'Savior,' because He will save His people from their sins. Additionally, the name Emmanuel, meaning 'God with us,' signifies God's presence among His people and His intimate relationship with them. These names encapsulate the core of the Gospel: substitution and satisfaction, highlighting how Jesus fulfills the prophecies and roles necessary for our redemption.
