I'd never known that Mary wasn't called a virgin in the original Hebrew. Does she really say, at the enunciation, something to the effect of, "But how can that be, for Joseph and I are not yet married?" Come to think of it, that might have just been my old children's Bible being particularly egregious, for all I know.
