    Isaiah 7:14 names the new child born Immanuel with an "I", but when I search, it is spelled with an "E" Emmanuel. Why is this?

    In Isaiah 7:14, the word is spelled out using the Hebrew/Chaldean/Aramaic spelling, Immanuel. Whereas in Matthew 1:23, Emmanuel is taken from the Greek spelling, Emmanouel. Both mean exactly the same: God with us.
