My question that was rejected to be posted in his Facebook group is...
If in Isaiah the prophecy truly is that an 'Almah' (a young maiden) is with child, how does a young maiden (unmarried woman) who is pregnant (not a virgin) not punishable by Law considering the fact that this is spoken of HEBREW Woman??
The ONLY exception is if she bears a child without ever having sex, thus a virgin.
Even if the Septuagint got it wrong, or if the Rabbis changed it to Almah, it still makes this prophecy point to a virgin pregnancy, regardless of the interpretation of said prophecy.
Will a Rabbi please address this?

I don't know if you have read the verse in Hebrew but Immanuel is not one word. It's actually two words and honestly a bad translation. At least by calling the two words by one name. It says... "...and call His name our God" or and called His name God with us." They called him "God." לָכֵן יִתֵּן אֲדֹנָי הוּא, לָכֶם--אוֹת: הִנֵּה הָעַלְמָה, הָרָה וְיֹלֶדֶת בֵּן, וְקָרָאת שְׁמוֹ, עִמָּנוּ אֵל
The name is "God" but it tells you He is with us.
