Virgin olive oil is olive oil that has been pressed and contains no chemicals to alter the taste....
I know you didnt ask these but here goes:
Extra Virgin Olive Oil is olive oil that is made from the first pressing and only the first pressing of the olives (they can squeeze the olives more than once to get more oil out).
Refined / and Or pomace olive oil are types of olive oil that can be treated with chemicals and or heat to get the oil out.....

Because Isaiah 7:14 is the ONLY verse in the entire Jewish Bible that could be forced to mean a virgin birth; there is no other verse that comes anywhere close. If you point out that Isaiah 7:14 doesn't even speak if a virgin birth, the Christians have NOTHING to fall back on, and will have to come to the realization that the NT claims that the messiah would be born of a virgin are false, and if that is false, how much else in the NT is false, and it snowballs until they must come to realize the entire thing is false. The notion that Jesus was a god-in-the-flesh depends upon his having been born much differently than any other man. The virgin birth would fill that need. The god/men of the pagans were usually born of virgins, so the early Christians claimed Jesus was (also) born of a virgin. Paul (who made up the religion) didn't mention virgin birth. He speaks of a Christ that apparently appeared as an adult without genealogy at all. That's why Paul compared Christ to Melkhizedek, "having no father or mother nor beginning of life nor end of days."

Extra-virgin olive oil comes from the first pressing of the olives, contains no more than 0.8% acidity, and is judged to have a superior taste. There can be no refined oil in extra-virgin olive oil.
Virgin olive oil has an acidity less than 2%, and judged to have a good taste. There can be no refined oil in virgin olive oil.

Virgin in general means pure, untouched, unaltered.
Examples:
Drinks : a mix that would normally have alcohol doesnt contain alcohol.
Sex: To have never had sex.
Car: In its original factory stock

Virgin means untouched in all senses. When talking about things or places mean untouched by humans
