All this took place to fulfill what the Lord had said
through the prophet:
"The virgin will be with Child and will give birth to a Son, and they will call Him Immanuel" - which means, "God with us."
"The virgin will be with Child and will give birth to a Son, and they will call Him Immanuel" - which means, "God with us."
