Perhaps, but it is clearly fabricated and symbolic, regardless of whether or not it was meant to be taken literally. Which Biblical passages are you thinking about? I can only think of the one where Jesus prohibits divorce, in which his quotation still works just fine if the story isn't literal, and the one in one of the Pauline letters in which the author contrasts Jesus with Adam. That one also still works if the creation story isn't taken literally.
