Virgin:
is used
(a) of "the Virgin Mary," Mat 1:23; Luk 1:27;
(b) of the ten "virgins" in the parable, Mat 25:1, 7, 11;
(c) of the "daughters" of Philip the evangelist, Act 21:9;
(d) those concerning whom the Apostle Paul gives instructions regarding marriage, 1Cr 7:25, 28, 34; in 1Cr 7:36-38, the subject passes to that of "virgin daughters" (RV), which almost certainly formed one of the subjects upon which the church at Corinth sent for instructions from the Apostle; one difficulty was relative to the discredit which might be brought upon a father (or guardian), if he allowed his daughter or ward to grow old unmarried. The interpretation that this passage refers to a man and woman already in some kind of relation by way of a spiritual marriage and living together in a vow of virginity and celibacy, is untenable if only in view of the phraseology of the passage;
(e) figuratively, of "a local church" in its relation to Christ, 2Cr 11:2;
(f) metaphorically of "chaste persons," Rev 14:4.
