Juice,
I'd need to see an exegetical presentation of an intra-Isaianic fulfillment of the text. I don't think the virgin-birth prophecy has a pre-fulfillment, i.e. something that Jesus' birth then later makes more of. The Pharisees would have loved to expose Jesus' earthly father. Then Jesus could not have been the Messiah--because the Messiah had to be virgin-born, and they all knew it.
