Continuing, to my knowledge, in Judaism, a prophetess or a woman who was a judge of Israel was never expected to be a virgin. And Judaism and the Jewish people have never had a religious order of celibate nuns.
But Virgin Mary and celibate nuns are a very important part of Christian civilization and serve an important social purpose. The nuns were (and are) surrogate mothers to the children in orphanages, and teachers in the Catholic schools.
From whence comes this?
