 7  XXVII|          of God's being born of a virgin. He who was going to consecrate
 8  XXVII|            is the sign? "Behold a virgin shall conceive and bear
 9  XXVII|       bear a son." Accordingly, a virgin did conceive and bear "Emmanuel,

14  XXVII|      therefore sent down into the virgin's womb His Word, as the
15 XXVIII|           before His birth of the virgin, He was able to have God
16 XXVIII|          after He was born of the virgin, He was able to have a woman
17 XXVIII|       that He should be born of a virgin, why should He not have
18 XXVIII|          not have received of the virgin the body which He bore from

23     XX|        through a virgin, not of a virgin, and in a womb, not of a
24     XX|         flesh which was made of a virgin We shall have also the support
25     XX|          Christ's being born of a virgin. It was simply this, that (

27     XX|         Christ, who was Himself a virgin, even in the flesh, in that

31    XXI| discussion. "Behold," says he, "a virgin shall conceive in the womb."

38  XXIII|        these sophists say: "She a virgin and yet not a virgin bare,
