In Greek mythology they have a couple tales of this happening as well, including Zeus was visiting a king’s wife so she got pregnant and had Hercules by him alongside a twin Iphicles from the king Amphityron.

Greek mythology is so unhinged. Imagine the bible was full of Jesus and the disciples raping each other and each others children

Umm... I mean... I guess it's not Jesus and his disciples, but that kind of thing definitely happens in the bible. E.g. Lot and his daughters.
