Matthew 1:23


"Behold, the virgin [the young, unmarried woman – who has not yet been with any man; Gk. parthenos]
shall conceive (literally: 'bear/have in the womb') and bear (Gk. tikto) a son,
and they shall call his name Emmanuel." [Isa. 7:14]
Which translated [from the Hebrew immanu el, see Isa. 8:10] becomes: "God with us" [Matt. 28:20].
[Literally, the last phrase is: meth hemon ho Theos – With us God. He who is God is now with us. The Greek preposition meth also indicates a change that occurs as a result of something. Matthew quotes from the Greek translation Septuagint, where the Hebrew word for young woman (Hebr. almah) is translated as parthenos, meaning a virgin who has not been with a man.
The context in Isaiah is about a child who would be born during the reign of King Ahaz (735-715 BC) and before the boy was more than 2-3 years old, the enemies would be defeated by Assyria, see Isa. 7:12, 16. In Hebrew thought, prophecies have multiple fulfillments. In Judaism, this prophecy was interpreted early on as referring to a future Messiah.]
