Re: Explain this scripture (Is 7:14)
[QUOTE=TGBTG;1293417]
...So was the virgin birth a double fulfillment? As in did a virgin give birth in Isaiah's day (as a sign to Ahaz)?
Or did the virgin birth occur only once (Mary giving birth to Jesus)? If so, how was the sign goven to Ahaz fulfilled?
Or am I just missing it completely??
Thanks AFF scholars![/QUOTE
This prophecy was primarily to the House of David. "However, this sign was not to be fulfilled during the days of Ahaz nor yet for some time afterward,... Thus before this child should come on the scene and grow up to years of maturity, not only the king of Israel, but also the king of Judah would have ceased to reign, and the land would be left without a son of David sitting on the throne of Judah, or any representative sitting upon the throne of Israel..." pages 46 and 47 of "Isaiah" by H.A.
