Emmanuel (Hebrew: עמנואל — Immanuël, "God [is] with us") is a prophecy from the Old Testament. Christianity interprets it as an announcement of the coming of Jesus Christ, and it is taken up in the Gospel according to Matthew. It inspired a type of icon depicting the adolescent Jesus Christ, known as the Saviour-Emmanuel or Christ-Emmanuel (in Russian: Спас Эммануил).
