Bunch of eggheads trying to argue the angels on the head of a pin again. The Septuagint is clear its a virgin and the Strong's for the KJV says virgin. Jesus fulfilled every prophesy including this one. The Septuagint was what the Apostles read at the time of Jesus, for the most part. There are mentions of the Book of Enoch in Jude, and other books that we don't read today but they had access to.

I discovered the Septuagint a few years ago and find it even more informative than the KJV. The Greeks were more descriptive than Hebrew and the meaning was decided on by Jews and the proper Greek was chosen. If you are into prophesy in the Last days, the Septuagint is more descriptive and accurate. An example would be Amos 7:1 speaks of the king's mowings. Well, the king spoken of was Gog which the KJV doesn't speak of. There are many changes in Genesis that tell you more in the Septuagint than KJV.

Wouldn’t you have to know Greek to read the Septuagint?

The Greek texts from which everyone works are translations — the Old testament was created (whether written down or not) in Hebrew, and the words of Jesus were spoken in Aramaic. Every translator af anything makes editorial decisions.
