Nothing wrong with reading and seeking wisdom from the Torah.
This is what the Torah says about virginity, a man sleeping with a virgin and a man claiming a woman is not a virgin and the claim being true or false:
Exodus 22:16-17
[SUP]16 [/SUP]And if a man entice a maid that is not betrothed, and lie with her, he shall surely endow her to be his wife.
[SUP]17 [/SUP]If her father utterly refuse to give her unto him, he shall pay money according to the dowry of virgins.
Deuteronomy 22:13-21
[SUP]13 [/SUP]If any man take a wife, and go in unto her, and hate her,
[SUP]14 [/SUP]And give occasions of speech against her, and bring up an evil name upon her, and say, I took this woman, and when I came to her, I found her not a maid:
[SUP]15 [/SUP]Then shall the father of the damsel, and her mother, take and bring forth the tokens of the damsel's virginity unto the elders of the city in the gate:
[SUP]16 [/SUP]And the damsel's father shall say unto the elders, I gave my daughter unto this man to wife, and he hateth her;
[SUP]17 [/SUP]And, lo, he hath given occasions of speech against her, saying, I found not thy daughter a maid; and yet these are the tokens of my daughter's virginity. And they shall spread the cloth before the elders of the city.
[SUP]18 [/SUP]And the elders of that city shall take that man and chastise him;
[SUP]19 [/SUP]And they shall amerce him in an hundred shekels of silver, and give them unto the father of the damsel, because he hath brought up an evil name upon a virgin of Israel: and she shall be his wife; he may not put her away all his days.
[SUP]20 [/SUP]But if this thing be true, and the tokens of virginity be not found for the damsel:
[SUP]21 [/SUP]Then they shall bring out the damsel to the door of her father's house, and the men of her city shall stone her with stones that she die: because she hath wrought folly in Israel, to play the whore in her father's house: so shalt thou put evil away from among you.
So as we can see according to the Torah if a man sleeps with a virgin he must marry her or if her father refuses to let her be married then he must pay her father a dowry. If a man makes a false claim about his wife not being a virgin and she is found to be a virgin that man must be chastised by the elders and that man must pay a penalty in money to the virgin's father for speaking evil against a virgin. If the man's claim is found to be true and his wife be not a virgin then the woman must be put to death for playing the whore, which is fornication.
With that in mind, consider the episode of Joseph the husband of Mary and his thoughts about the matter before God intervened, particularly verse 19 which seems to indicate that Joseph was aware of the Torah's verses about such things, but because Joseph was a just man sought to simply put her away privately than to make her a public example.
Matthew 1:18-25
[SUP]18 [/SUP]Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Ghost.
[SUP]19 [/SUP]Then Joseph her husband, being a just man, and not willing to make her a public example, was minded to put her away privily.
[SUP]20 [/SUP]But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Ghost.
[SUP]21 [/SUP]And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name Jesus: for he shall save his people from their sins.
[SUP]22 [/SUP]Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying,
[SUP]23 [/SUP]Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us.
[SUP]24 [/SUP]Then Joseph being raised from sleep did as the angel of the Lord had bidden him, and took unto him his wife:
[SUP]25 [/SUP]And knew her not till she had brought forth her firstborn son: and he called his name Jesus.
