What do Jehovah's Witnesses think Emanuel means. I am truly curious?

Answer 1

They admit it means God with us and yet somehow deny that this means He is God. Not sure how they do that.

Answer 2

Emmanuel means "God with us". Jesus is God.

John 1:1-4, 14

Answer 3

Is this a trick question??? God with us! Don't forget Melchizedek,...Who was he?......I hear ya! though....even though I'm not of that religion.....be good now ya hear!

Peace out

Answer 4

I'm sorry but haven't you claimed to have BEEN one of Jehovah's Witnesses?

You claim you don't know?


Matt. 1:23, RS: “‘Behold, a virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and his name shall be called Emman′u-el’ (which means, God with us [“God is with us,” NE]).”

What did Jesus himself say?


Joh 10:36

(ASV) say ye of him, whom the Father sanctified and sent into the world, Thou blasphemest; because I said, I am the Son of God?

(BBE) Do you say of him whom the Father made holy and sent into the world, Your words are evil; because I said, I am God's Son?

(ISV) how can you say to the one whom the Father has consecrated and sent into the world, 'You are blaspheming,' because I said, 'I am the Son of God'?

(KJV+) Say3004 ye5210 of him, whom3739 the3588 Father3962 hath sanctified,37 and2532 sent649 into1519 the3588 world,2889 Thou blasphemest;987 because3754 I said,3004 I am1510 the Son5207 of God?2316

(KJVA) Say ye of him, whom the Father hath sanctified, and sent into the world, Thou blasphemest; because I said, I am the Son of God?

(LITV) do you say of Him whom the Father sanctified and sent into the world, You blaspheme, because I said, I am Son of God?

(YLT) of him whom the Father did sanctify, and send to the world, do ye say--Thou speakest evil, because I said, Son of God I am?



Jesus himself never claimed to be God but, rather, “the Son of God.” (John 10:36)
