# General Information:
The author quotes the prophet Isaiah to show that Jesus' birth was according to scripture. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/writing-background]])

The angel is no longer speaking. Matthew is now explaining the importance of what the angel said.
# what was spoken by the Lord through the prophet
This can be stated in active form. AT: "what the Lord told the prophet to write long ago" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-activepassive]])
# the prophet
There were many prophets. Matthew was speaking of Isaiah. AT: "the prophet Isaiah" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-explicit]])
# Behold ... Immanuel
Here Matthew quotes the prophet Isaiah.
# Behold, the virgin
"Pay attention, because what I am about to say is both true and important: the virgin"
# Immanuel
This is a male name. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/translate-names]])
