Re: Split Prophecy
Here's an example of a prophecy which must be split into different occasions...
Matthew 24
"I tell you the truth, not one stone here will be left on another; every one will be thrown down."
"For many will come in my name, claiming, 'I am the Christ' "
Eventhough both verses are placed close together, they refer to 2 different timeframes.

Re: Two Virgin Births
Jesus doesn't fulfill it at all. His name is not Immanuel
Immanuel means 'God with us'. Many people have given Jesus a God status. For example, Thomas addressed Jesus, 'My Lord and my God...'
Even today, many Christians worship Jesus as if He is God.
If you take a look at your telephone directory, you will realize that there are many people named Immanuel. It's really silly to assume that Messianic prophecies can be fulfilled by the whims and fancies of parents who name their children.
When interpretting the bible, try to search for an interpretation that gives an unique solution.
