Isaiah is quoted from or referred to in the New Testament at least twenty times. A few examples follow, with Isaiah's words in bold:
Matthew 3:3 - For this is he who was spoken of by the prophet Isaiah, saying: "The voice of one crying in the wilderness: 'Prepare the way of the Lord; Make His paths straight.' "
Matthew 8:16, 17 - When evening had come, they brought to Him many who were demon-possessed. And He cast out the spirits with a word, and healed all who were sick, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Isaiah the prophet, saying: "He Himself took our infirmities And bore our sicknesses."
Matthew 13:14, 15 - "And in them the prophecy of Isaiah is fulfilled, which says: 'Hearing you will hear and shall not understand, And seeing you will see and not perceive; For the hearts of this people have grown dull. Their ears are hard of hearing, And their eyes they have closed, Lest they should see with their eyes and hear with their ears, Lest they should understand with their hearts and turn, So that I should heal them.' "
Mark 7:6, 7 - He answered and said to them, "Well did Isaiah prophesy of you hypocrites, as it is written: 'This people honors Me with their lips, But their heart is far from Me. And in vain they worship Me, Teaching as doctrines the commandments of men.' "
John 12:37, 38 - But although He had done so many signs before them, they did not believe in Him, that the word of Isaiah the prophet might be fulfilled, which he spoke: "Lord, who has believed our report? And to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?"
Romans 9:27-29 - Isaiah also cries out concerning Israel: "Though the number of the children of Israel be as the sand of the sea, The remnant will be saved. For He will finish the work and cut it short in righteousness, Because the Lord will make a short work upon the earth." And as Isaiah said before: "Unless the Lord of Sabaoth had left us a seed, We would have become like Sodom, And we would have been made like Gomorrah."
Romans 10:20 - But Isaiah is very bold and says: "I was found by those who did not seek Me; I was made manifest to those who did not ask for Me."
Romans 15:12 - And again, Isaiah says: "There shall be a root of Jesse; And He who shall rise to reign over the Gentiles, In Him the Gentiles shall hope."
Other pertinent New Testament passages related to Isaiah (some parallel to others) are Matthew 4:13-16; Matthew 12:16-21; Matthew 15:7-9; Luke 3:4; Luke 4:17-19; John 1:23; John 12:39-41; Acts 8:30-35; Acts 28:25-27; Romans 10:16.

How many times did jesus refer to isaiah?
Suffice it to say that there are dozens of references or direct quotes from Isaiah and of all the Books of the Old Testament, Isaiah is 2nd only to the Psalms.More importantly, Isaiah is called the 'Little Bible' due to the frequency of its verses being used in the New Testament. But the main point here is, Jesus became the fulfillment of Isaiah's messianic prophecies.
What Old Testament book did Philip use speaking to the ethiopian eunuch?
Philip used the old testament and the book was Isaiah , to the Ethiopian eunuch.
What percent of the New Testament is either quotation or illusion of the Old Testament?
This number will vary by the parameters being used and the one doing the counting, but it would be fair to say that at least 10% of Old Testament direct quotes, paraphrases, allusions and references can be found in the New Testament. Many fail to realize that the writers of the New Covenant depended upon the authority of the Old Covenant as God the Word, who became Jesus is the author of each. Christ Himself, referenced the Old directly and alluded to many Scriptures. It is said by many that Isaiah is the most often quoted Old Testament book - sometimes being called 'the little Bible.'
Immanuel occurs how many times in the Bible?
The KJV uses Immanuel twice in Isaiah and also Emmanuel once in Matthew. In the NIV, Immanuel is used four times in both Old and New Testament and Emmanuel once in the New Testament.
How does the Gospel of Matthew connect to the Old Testament?
The Gospel of Matthew makes more references to the Old Testament than any other gospel. The gospel was written in Greek Koine and we can not be certain whether the author had a good command of the Hebrew language, as his references were all to the Septuagint, a flawed early Greek translation of the Hebrew scriptures. This is most evident in the author's reference to Isaiah 7:14 to say that a virgin would conceive and bear a child and his reliance on this as evidence that the virginity of Mary had been prophesied. Isaiah 7:14, in the original Hebrew, actually says, "the young woman", and the young woman in question did have a child a few verses later in Isaiah. The Septuagint had incorrectly translated 'the young woman' as 'a virgin', and Matthew's reliance on this demonstrates that he used the Septuagint scriptures. This gospel's use of the Old Testament is at its most profound in the nativity account, which makes use of many passages from the Septuagint and cleverly draws a parallel between Jesus and Moses of the Old Testament.
