The book of Isaiah does not explicitly use the phrase "the word of God would become embryonic flesh," but there are themes and prophecies within Isaiah that Christian theologians interpret as pointing to the incarnation of Christ, which aligns with the concept of the Word becoming flesh.
Isaiah 7:14: "Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign: The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and will call him Immanuel." This verse is often cited in Christian theology as a prophecy of the virgin birth of Jesus Christ, suggesting a divine intervention where God takes human form through a virgin birth.
Isaiah 9:6: "For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace." This verse speaks of a child who holds divine titles, which Christians interpret as a prophecy about Jesus, indicating that a divine being (the Word) would be born as a human child.
Isaiah 11:1-5: This passage describes a future ruler from the line of Jesse (David's father) who will be endowed with the Spirit of the Lord and will rule with righteousness. Christians see this as a reference to Jesus Christ, connecting the human lineage to the divine mission.
Isaiah 53: This chapter describes the suffering servant who bears the sins of many, a key text in Christian understanding of Jesus' sacrificial role. While it doesn't explicitly mention the Word becoming flesh, it describes the human suffering of someone who is ultimately fulfilling a divine purpose.
While Isaiah does not explicitly state that "the word of God would become embryonic flesh," these and other passages are interpreted by Christians as foreshadowing the incarnation of Jesus Christ, where the divine Word (Logos) becomes human, as expressed in the New Testament, particularly in John 1:14: "The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us."
