Isaiah 9 and Isaiah 53

I am going to sometime look into the prophesies that the christians think ascribe to themselves the idea that Jesus is our saviour and 'messiah'.  This is clearly not so and I have investigated tonight 2 arguments for Jesus based on these 2 chapters of the book of Isaiah.
In Isaiah 9, it is discussed that a son will come and be named "The mighty G-d is planning grace, the Eternal Father a peaceable ruler."
This is not a physical son that this verse refers to. 
The son in this verse is the idea of "Godliness".  This is a son that will exist in the future as our people are brought to being Godly and Torah orientated.

In Isaiah 53, they talk about a son again.  This is the quintessential arguement for the Christians about jesus.  This verse talks about a suffering servant. 
This servant is not a son.  For a while, I was always told that this son refers to Israel.  This is partially true.
To me, I think that this refers to a son figuratively which is the preisthood.
