Let's take a look at the next 2 names, beginning with Immanuel. Immanuel is more than a name, it indicates Jesus Role, bringing God's presence to man.
God is with us.
The meaning, "God is with us" is important to know. God is with us because of Jesus. "God is with us", describes the nature of Jesus. He is God, who became human. It describes the not only the exact nature of Jesus, but the fact that God has been gracious to His people by sending Jesus.
I don't know about you but I am so thankful for Immanuel.
Shiloh means "peace in the midst of pain". It can also be used as Messianic title. In Genesis 49:10, it means "He who is to be sent" which is an allusion to the Messiah. Shiloh is also significant with a "place of rest". It think it is meaningful to look to Jesus as Shiloh, my peace in the midst of pain, and my place of rest.
Again, this is just a little information to allow us to see Jesus differently and to draw closer. Use the scriptures and draw closer to God's word.
