Then, examine the nature of the sign.
1. A young woman is pregnant and is to give birth
2. She will give a particular name to her child (Immanuel)
3. BEFORE THE CHILD IS WEANED the Assyrians will no longer be a power.

The sequence in which prophesy is given as well as the prophesy itself
demand a nearly immediate fulfilment.

Rabbinical Jewish interpretation has proposed Isaiah's son or Hezekiah.
Neither interpretation works any better or is superior to the Jesus
interpretation.

For the Jews for Jesus take on the passage see
