Virgin:
In a prophecy concerning our Lord, Isaiah (Isa 7:14) says, "A virgin [R.V. marg., 'the virgin'] shall conceive, and bear a son" (Luk 1:31-35). The people of the land of Zidon are thus referred to by Isaiah (Isa 23:12), "O thou oppressed virgin, daughter of Zidon;" and of the people of Israel, Jeremiah (Jer 18:13) says, "The virgin of Israel hath done a very horrible thing."
The Blue Letter Bible ministry and the BLB Institute hold to the historical, conservative Christian faith, which includes a firm belief in the inerrancy of Scripture. Since the text and audio content provided by BLB represent a range of evangelical traditions, all of the ideas and principles conveyed in the resource materials are not necessarily affirmed, in total, by this ministry.
