Currently, Jews recognize no authority in the Septuagint.  The meaning of
parthenos in Alexandrian Greek 2100 years ago is hardly certain.  There is
evidence that it had the same figurative connotations which maid has in
current English and Maedchen has in current German.  Neither word
currently implies never having had sexual intercourse.
