'Learn' As in Biblical 'Know'

[Doug Harris]

I'm not a biblical scholar, but I seem to recall it using the term 'know'  or 'known'
relative to sexual intercourse. I recently saw what I imagined to be a twist on
that concept, in a poem written by a 23-yr-old about a love-gone-bad situation.
The line read 'Two years ago you learned me.' Earlier, she'd spoken of him
fucking her. So the inference in the 'learned' reference is clear.

I don't recall ever seeing that usage before. Is it more common that I imagine it
to be?
