So you agree that the verse is concerned with establishing Mary's virginity and does not state that the birth is a "turning point" between virginity and non-virginity?
If this is the case, we can agree. You assume that they carried on as a normal average everyday family. We assume differently. But the text itself does not testify one way or another.

Maybe we can all agree that the correct, original, Hebrew word was concerning a "young woman".?????
Do you agree that there is no correspondence between the Old Testament prophesy of "young woman" and the New Testament use of "Virgin"?
