Subject: Isa. 7:14 -- "virgin" or "young woman"? |
Bible Note: Hi, kalos; I posted a few messages about the relationship between the virgins in Isaiah and Matthew some time ago. You participated early in the thread, but you may not have seen any of the later stuff since at some point it was removed from the home page. Anyway, I provided some information from a class I was taking. You may find it relevant to the interpretation of the NET Bible. I have to say that rendering the woman in question in Isaiah a "young woman" rather than a "virgin" would probably make my comments more palatable to some forum members. If you're interested, search for message #71993. Peace and grace, Steve aka Indiana Jones |
