Actually, alma can mean either young woman or a virgin. Betula is more more specific in meaning virgin. The 70 translated the Isaiah 7:14 alma into Greek as parthenos which means virgin. And Matthew uses parthenos as well.

We live in an age where "virgin births" are technically possible, and probably common. There's also an incredibly vicious campaign being taken against the first-born children ~ who would have been first-born if they weren't murdered in the womb by Satan's own agents.

In our own country, the individual most responsible for public health policy is literally a fallen angel of death, former Governor Sebelius!

No doubt there are a dozen other prophetic entries of similar nature in the Holy Scriptures that would appear to be getting recycled.
