And some women wove cloth and some women were virgins and there was a temple. Put it all together and give it a shake and there’s the temple virgins.

The example I gave from the Talmud is the source of Jewish myths about Jesus being the illegitimate son of a Roman soldier. The Talmud is to be read with only the greatest skepticism, i.e., unless demonstrated as true it must be regarded as false.
