Just go a little further in Deuteronomy - to 23:3
It says that a Mamzer - a person whose parents were NOT married - cannot enter in the congregation of the lord.
Since the xtians claim that the christ was his own father (Part of the one god) - obviously he could not marry his mother - which is also not allowed
So the christ would have been shunned by the religion - and not allowed to be taught the religion - nor enter the temples.
More reasons why the christ is a "creation of later human imagination" - nothing more
Obviously - those that created the christ myth had little actual knowledge of the Jewish religion.
