Instead, the obvious is that there is no humanistic understanding of the Holy Scriptures. Had Isaiah been read from the human perspective, then there may be questions. But read it from the eternal perpsective:

9:6 For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. 7) Of the increase of [his] government and peace [there shall be] no end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even for ever. The zeal of the LORD of hosts will perform this. 8) The Lord sent a word into Jacob, and it hath lighted upon Israel.

Question: Which One is the Child; Wonderful?, Counsellor? The mighty God? The Everlasting Father? or the Prince of Peace? Humanly it cannot be understood. But from the perspective of Him Who inspired the WORD of the LORD, it can be only one person. THAT is what I believe, that it is Yeshua bar David, Ha Mashiach.
