There has been much debate about the Virgin
Birth or, as it is properly described, the
virginal conception of Jesus.
The divine priority in the Incarnation is symbolized both by the Annunciation, God's messenger announcing his plan in advance, and by the virgin
birth — more precisely, the
virginal conception — of Jesus; also by the concept of the pre-existence of Christ, whether as Logos or Son of Man.

birth, Fr Flader cites additional texts explaining the more specific point of how «Jesus could pass through the
virginal body of his mother without rupturing it» (p114).

virginal conception was foretold in Isaiah 7:14, the
