A Messiah Prophesy? Hebrew Book of Isaiah

ISAIAH 7:14 [NIV]: “Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign: The virgin will be with child and will give birth to a son, and will call him Immanuel.” [about 733 BCE]

In 733 BCE King Pekah of Israel [Samaria] was threatening to invade Jerusalem [Judah] with the Syrians as allies. King Ahaz of Judah allied with the Assyrians, and was holding against the attack. Ahaz was speaking with Lord Yahweh and he was assured that the attack would fail. Apparently, Ahaz’s advisors were skeptical and eventually Isaiah provided them with a prophesy to calm their nerves.

Isaiah’s speech would be reinterpreted [recension by the Vatican] and the Christian “Virgin Baring a Messiah Myth to Save All Mankind” began. The revised prophesy [NIV] is shown above. The actual interpretation of the Hebrew passages follow: [Compare Vs. 14] The rest of the speech is provided to give context to the conversation.

“Listen, House of David,” [Isaiah] retorted, “is it not enough for you to treat men as helpless that you also treat my God as helpless? 
14 יד
Assuredly, my Lord will give you a sign of His own accord! Look, the young woman is with child and about to give birth to a son. Let her name him Immanuel.
15 טו
(By the time he learns to reject the bad and choose the good, people will be feeding on curds and honey.)
16 טז
For before the lad knows to reject the bad and choose the good, the ground whose two kings you dread shall be abandoned.
17 יז
The LORD will cause to come upon you and your people and your ancestral house such days as never have come since Ephraim turned away from Judah—that selfsame king of Assyria!
[Immanuel, in Hebrew, translates as “God is with us”]

These verses in Isaiah and countless other writings were changed by “Divine Recension”, which is, re-interpretation by “Devine Inspiration” to change the words “the young woman is with child” to “the virgin … will give birth” and the meaning of the passages to something entirely different.

Brother Pope has acknowledged this recension occurred – but the money keeps rolling in.
