Abstract
In this paper, the ambiguity of the Emmanuel sign is discussed to show that its content is not easy to comprehend. Based on this fact, the investigation attempts to understand the sign beyond its original context, that is, to pay attention to the implicit meaning which the announcer could not declare explicitly but had to use the obscure expressions. In other words, it is a quest for proving that the book of Isaiah in its current form does not block the possibility of understanding the Emmanuel sign messianically.
