My faithful lalamo says that the horns of Moses are the result of a translation error from (vowel-less) Hebraic -- what should have been "shining face" became "horned face".

Just as Mary was not a virgin in the original Hebrew.... According to your favourite LLM:
"The original Hebrew text of Isaiah 7:14 describes a "young woman" ('almah), not a biological "virgin" (for which the Hebrew is betulah).
The discrepancy is the result of a known semantic shift in historical translation. In the 3rd century BCE, Jewish scholars translating the Hebrew text into Greek (the Septuagint) chose the Greek word parthenos to represent 'almah. In the cultural context of antiquity, an unmarried young woman was presumed to be a virgin, making the translation a functional equivalent for its era.
However, parthenos carries a much stronger biological specificity ("virgin") than 'almah. The author of the Gospel of Matthew, writing in Greek, relied on the Septuagint translation. The New Testament author utilized the stricter Greek definition to establish the theological narrative of a virgin birth.
Objectively, the original Hebrew designates a young woman. The specific biological requirement of virginity is absent in the Hebrew source and enters the text solely through the Greek translation layer."
