::I don't do original research. This article needs some serious scholarly work. At the moment I don't have time - but may return to it in the future. It seems to me that it is skewed rather unhelpfully by a good dose of Christian apologetics. Seeing as the subject of the article is part of Jewish religious history (more so than Christian) I think we should primarily clarify the understanding of the story within Judaism. And there the major view is that the daughter died. Then we can add in the Christian perspective - although even here the Church Fathers are of the view that she died. In the medieval and early modern period we see the suggestion that she remained a virgin instead; but even Martin Luther argued the suggestion of death is clear. I think we need a bit more honesty, and a bit less soft-soap. I also would like a reference to Hamlet.
