The Church of God (Cleveland) affirms the traditional reading of Isaiah 7:14 as a messianic prophecy of the virgin birth. Though the Hebrew word almah can mean 'young woman' in general, the Church interprets it in context as referring to virginity, particularly in light of the Greek Septuagint translation (parthenos) and Matthew's christological application (Matthew 1:23).

The Church understands this passage as part of the prophetic testimony to Jesus's miraculous conception. Isaiah 7:14 is read alongside the Gospel accounts of the virgin birth as confirming the divinity and uniqueness of Christ. The interpretation emphasizes that a virgin birth would be a sign from God — an unprecedented miracle — consistent with the theophanic character of Isaiah's prophecy.
