​​@@Ghirbo04 You just have to accept the fact that same-sex attraction is intrinsic to some people just like left-handedness is, so what does that mean to you? If you continue to insist that homosexuality is sin then you'll have to say that same-sex attraction is sin too just like that Paul says in Romans 1:26 when he said "For this reason God gave them up to shameful desires." That means you'll have to conclude that Paul was on the same page as Augustine and John Calvin that some are predestined to the infernal place. Or you can reevaluate your opinion on homosexuality, and on the Genesis and Leviticus passages, and on Paul, taking a keen look at the relationships between David and Johnathan, the Centurion and his cherished slave boy, and Jesus and Lazarus/John the beloved disciple, and also at that incident recorded in Mark 14:51-52, where Jesus was caught at 4 AM in a public garden with a nearly naked teenage boy or young man whom the police also tried to arrest. Clearly they were confident that the two were guilty of some homosexual transgression, even if they were confidently wrong.

1. Dershowitz is stating something that is not there, actually was when other interpretations are possible. It could have been understood that not sleeping with male relatives was intended for females, and not sleeping with female relatives was meant for males, or simply that they were ruling out all family relations to the first and second generations removed. Even in your cartoon you have not said ANYTHING to make homosexual relations allowed or "condoned." 2. This is important because we DO have explicit rules for homosexual relations in the Mesopotamian texts of the time. 3. All scholarship has to include the alternate theories and not doing so here suggests silly click bait. 4. As others have said, at least provide some argument about why Jewish priests at some point DID condemn homosexuality. --You should clarify you are simplifying and summarizing ONE article and exactly what that means in scholarship. And you should give a little back story of the author because obviously one suspects a lot of implicit bias in his own mind which we always factor in to analyzing scholarship.

What difference does it make when you see the elephant in the room, which is that the early Hebrews selected your god from a roster of local gods, and customized 'him' to meet their ambitions, one of which was to be proclaimed 'his chosen people', which, to them, gave them license to kill. Another was to have 'his' heavenly sanction on their claim that the land of Canaan belonged to them for all time. They claimed that this 'god' required them to slaughter every inhabitant of a city they had conquered. You know the story. The Pentateuch is horse shit, man. A complete fiction.

Hi Dr. Josh, Interesting argument. But it will be a tough one to make with most Christians and Jews, who will generally accept the text of the Bible as-is, and resist scholarly efforts to reconstruct or deconstruct it. A stronger argument, I think, is to put the Bible's prohibitions on men having sex with men (it contains no clear statement about women having sex with women) in their cultural context. Essentially all male same-sex sex in the ancient world was of an unequal or outright exploitative nature, of a sort that is generally condemned in liberal societies today as well. Same-sex sex between people of equal status rarely happened, and if it did, it was frowned upon or made illegal even in cultures that were accepting of same-sex sex. The Hebrew word _toebah_ used to condemn men having sex with men in Leviticus 18:22; 20:13 carries the connotation of something that is ritually unclean or culturally taboo. The traditional translations of "abominable" or "detestable" don't fully convey the sense of the Hebrew. This also suggests that the prohibition of male same-sex sex in the Torah, which was later echoed in Paul, is based on cultural issues, and should be read in that light. Of course, you're never going to convince Christian fundamentalists. They are blind leaders of the blind. But for Christians and Jews of a more open mindset, this provides a pathway to understanding and even accepting the Bible's prohibition on men having sex with men _in the ways it was commonly practiced in those ancient cultures,_ while also understanding that the Bible is not talking about today's practice of same-sex marriage between men (and women) of equal status.

@@joshridinger3407 The idea that male-female sex was "exploitative" is anachronistic in applying today's ideas of gender equality to a time in which gender equality did not exist. Men were considered naturally higher in status than women. A man penetrating a woman was "natural" because the man was of higher status, and the woman of lower status. The problem with male-male sex was that in Israelite society, all men were considered to be of equal status under the law, from king right on down to beggar. The law was God's law, and no man had any higher status than any other man under God's law. This meant that in Israelite society, for a man to penetrate another man was to violate the cultural norm that no man was of higher status than any other man. A man penetrating another man made the one who penetrated of higher status than the one who was penetrated. It reduced the penetrated man to the lower status of a woman, which was considered "unnatural." This, in a nutshell, is why a man penetrating a woman did not violate cultural norms, but a man penetrating another man did. Once again, this applies specifically to Israelite society. Most of the surrounding cultures had no such norm that all men were equal under God's law.

@@leewoofenden "The idea that male-female sex was "exploitative" is anachronistic in applying today's ideas of gender equality to a time in which gender equality did not exist." this is a non-sequitur. it's like claiming that the idea that slavery is exploitative is based on modern ideas about equality. sex was seen as exploitative by nature, and it was a woman's place to be exploited by men, just as it was a slave's place to be exploited by their master. but that wasn't the (whole) reason male-on-male sex was prohibited, because in that case the penetrated man would be seen as a victim of a crime, to be made whole, rather than be executed along with the penetrator. sometimes societies simply acquire taboos that have no further explanation than some sheltered priest's disgust reflex. "The problem with male-male sex was that in Israelite society, all men were considered to be of equal status under the law, from king right on down to beggar." that's not true. in fact that's a blatant contradiction. a king is unequal to a beggar by definition.

@@joshridinger3407 Read the Hebrew and Greek scriptures. You will find references to a man ruling over his wife (as in Genesis 3:16), to a woman calling her husband "my lord" (as in Genesis 18:12), to a wife submitting to her husband (as in Ephesians 5:22), and so on. But you will not find a reference to a husband exploiting his wife. Not from the mouth of God, not from the mouth of a husband, not from the mouth of a wife. That's just not how people in those days thought of the relationship between man and woman. That's the anachronistic part. Some argument could be made that masters exploited their slaves, though even that relationship was not what many people today think of when they think of slaves. Many slaves accepted their status in the culture, and had no interest in changing it. See, for example, Exodus 21:2-6. Some slaves even achieved fairly high status in their culture. Slavery was not all whips and oppression. For the most part, it was simply an accepted part of nearly every culture on the face of the earth until very recent times. Obviously unacceptable by today's standards, but not by the standards of those cultures. However, even if an argument could be made that slavery is inherently exploitative, the idea that husbands exploited their wives in the cultures of the Bible is a modern anachronism that misunderstands the entire nature of the relationship between man and woman in those ancient cultures. Ironically, such a view actually devalues women compared to their actual roles in the Bible. For the most part, people were quite pragmatic about sex. A husband wanted sex with his wife or wives because that's how he sired sons as heirs, not to mention daughters that could fetch a bride price. A wife wanted sex with her husband because bearing sons, and secondarily daughters, was the primary way she gained honor and respect in her community and culture, not to mention having children to care for her in her old age. And there were many other benefits to both father and mother. Read the story in Genesis 29-30 of Leah and Rachel vying with one another for their husband Jacob's sexual favors. That should disabuse any objective person of the notion that women in those days thought of sex as exploitative. Marriage may not have been the equal relationship many people aspire to today. But it wasn't "exploitative." It worked quite well in those cultures, and it was accepted as normal and natural by both men and women. Not understanding this will result in misunderstanding the entire nature of gender relations in the ancient cultures of the Bible. Recognizing that sex was seen as a dominant person penetrating a submissive person is not at all the same as the people of those cultures seeing that relationship as exploitative. In those cultures, men and women were seen as naturally dominant and submissive, respectively, in relation to one another. Both men and women accepted this arrangement without question, and worked within it to achieve their own goals and desires, sometimes successfully and sometimes not so successfully. As an example, consider the story of Isaac and Rebekah in Genesis 24 (though it is really the story of Rebekah). While her family dithered and delayed, Rebekah immediately accepted Isaac sight-unseen as her husband. She saw an opportunity to marry a good and wealthy man, and she took it. The subsequent stories of their interactions show that Rebekah was a strong-minded woman very much able to assert her will-for example, in aiding and abetting her favored son Jacob in supplanting Isaac's favored son Esau to become Isaac's primary heir, and ultimately the one through whom the lineage of the biblical Patriarchs would be traced. If anything, in this marriage Rebekah exploited Isaac. But once again, that's just not how people thought of it in those days. Isaac came to accept Jacob as the stronger of his two sons. In the end, he willingly gave him his blessing as the rightful heir to his father Abraham's promise and covenant with God (see Genesis 28:1-4) There are many more instances in the Bible narrative of women and wives asserting their will, and having it accepted by men and husbands. Just one more example: Sarah, Abraham's wife, also flexed her muscle to ensure that her biological son Isaac became Abraham's primary heir, not Ishmael, Abraham's firstborn son. Abraham accepted her will, which was also God's will. (see Genesis 21:1-21). It was the wives who ensured that the biblical Patriarchs would be Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, not some other possible lineage through Ishmael or Esau. Reducing all of that complexity in biblical gender relations to the relationship between man and woman being "exploitative" is indeed an utterly anachronistic framing of ancient cultures based on modern theories that just don't apply to those cultures. It misses all the richness of women's often decisive position and influence, which starts with Eve herself and continues throughout the entire length of the Bible narrative.

I understand your point, and I do agree that the Old Testament has been edited, but I believe your conclusion here bypasses another potential solution. When the law says, "You can have sex with women, but not *these* women," could it not be that it's talking to men? And when it says, "You can have sex with men, but not *these* men," could it not be that it's talking to women? Why automatically assume that these are same-sex references? We see a number of heterosexual unions in the Pentateuch, including adulterous and incestuous situations, but we never see homosexual unions among any named persons. As I recall, prior to Leviticus, we only have one situation where homosexuality is mentioned, and even then only obliquely (the men of Sodom). The conclusion you advocate here would also seem to be negated by the provision "You shall not lie with a man as with a woman," or do you feel that this was a later edit as well?

And the verse is likely about military rules from the wording, so basically it's "Even if you are in war and could have sex with one of the other soldiers to relieve urges, don't. You would cheat on your wife, and you shouldn't do that."

@@eoincampbell1584 that doesn't really make sense. boys in traditioal pederastic relationships were the same age as girls when they were "ideally" married off, and both participants in the act are condemned, so it's not about protecting the supposed underage boy.
@eoincampbell1584
@eoincampbell1584 2 года назад
​@@joshridinger3407 I didn't say it was about protecting the boy. It just shows that the condemnation in the bible may have specifically been a condemnation of pederastic relationships, rather than all homosexuality between men. Girls *were* carted off at young ages, but it's fully possible this was simply a double standard. It's also important to note that a lot of Leviticus' rules are essentially distinctions between the Hebrew culture and nearby enemies: *They* worship animal idols, *they* eat these kinds of foods, *they* wear clothes of mixed fabrics, *they* practice pederasty, *they* have tatoos, *they* wear their hair like this; so *we* don't do any of that.

I actually watched this because I disagree with the premise of the vid, but I was looking to see if maybe you could convince me the other way around. And Im sorry to be a stickler, but Im really not convinced. You say that the Bible originally condoned homosexuality, but how could you possibly know that. Is there an original print version that exists? because then you could mention that. Otherwise it just seems like you are saying this as fact when I really see nothing to back it up. Im not a religious scholar in any sense, Im just learning about all of this right now, and it just seems like you came to a conclusion without much support. And also besides all of that, it seems like original text of the old testament would matter only to Jewish people, because for Christians Jesus is the final word. For example when in Mark 7 Jesus proclaimed "all foods clean" therefore nullifying Leviticus 11. In the same way, even if Leviticus 18-22 were void and null per your argument, the subject is reviewed again multiple times throughout the Bible, including in Romans 1, where homosexual intercourse is described as "unnatural" and a "shameless act". To me it just seems like you either believe in the Bible as God's word and must accept that in it homosexuality is condemned or not believe it at all. I feel like the arguments you present are just trying to avoid the inevitable and beat around the bush. I am just beginning to explore Christianity and its critics though, so I highly appreciate the input from the video. Gives me a lot to think about.

So why didn’t he show the changes made? He shows the passage we now see but doesn’t show the “original” passage…why? Because no changes were made. Leviticus isn’t the only mention of homosexuality in the Bible. It’s also in Deuteronomy 22:5, Romans 1:26-33 and Corinthians 6:9-11. The Bible has not changed. People are trying to make it change to match their own lives. If you want to know the truth read the Bible…don’t listen to man. The back of the Bible has a section of subjects that will take you right to where you want to go if you only want to see a specific subject. Don’t just listen to people…read and decide for yourself. You need to investigate and have discernment in all things biblical.. Your life is at stake.

How is saying 'don't have sex with your uncle' equivalent to saying 'it’s okay to have sex with people of the same gender'? That's like saying that ' you shall not covet your neighbour’s wife' is equivalent to condoning coveting the wives of people who are not your neighbours? Maybe they updated the text to get rid of such dodgy loopholes of interpretation rather than to change the meaning?

Excellent! Though I never had the proof (or the knowledge of the language used), I always felt there was something amiss in the Pentateuch, beyond the obvious contradictions (eg two "wives" for Adam, one of whom is quickly forgotten, then generally ignored even by fundies - and whom he didn't _actually_ marry in the way modern people insist is *the* correct way [with a ceremony and oaths sworn], without any evidence to support their point). I think it was because of the well-known contradictions, such as the above, that I deeply suspected there to be more which were not spoken about because they are either unknown due to the sort of outright change of words as in this video, or were deemed to be "harmless". The latter, of course, may have been harmless in and of themselves, but they did (and still do) allow preachers of the Abrahamic religions to pick and choose their own paths through the texts, thereby encouraging, and occasionally causing, the schisms in all three religions. Essentially, they have potentially been the foundation for the deaths and persecutions of countless millions over the centuries. In this case, who can measure the harm done to LGBTQ+ people worldwide and for at least 2 millennia. The thought of that is just gut-wrenchingly horrific. As in Lynne Truss's _Eats Shoots and Leaves_ (a hilarious but also accurate book of points in grammar, the heading using the punchline of the old joke about a hungry, randy and murderous panda), even something as apparently innocuous as a missed comma can cause a lot of trouble! It acts as a reminder that there really isn't any mistake in written language which doesn't have the potential to cause, at the very least, red faces 😳 😁. This channel is criminally undersubscribed. Going to share this link with my handful of Twitter pals and will ask them to share it with theirs. I only hope we can get some more people who are missing out on very fascinating information.

Umm... So the thing that I find in your argument is that you're 'telling ' us what Hebrew Bible said. Not presenting any proof of it whatsoever, nor mentioning the precise Hebrew words that condoned homosexuality. Proof as for precise or key words that would add more fundament; I understand that maybe a whole verse would not be practical for a RU-vid video but words wouldn't do any wrong. It hears as if summarizing or wrapping up what the Hebrew text said and then proceeding to tell us that the Bible Hebrew text said x or y thing. This is an opinion although meant not to be offensive in any way or rude man -- just wanted to clarify before y'all jump on me

Excuse me Sir, Do you have and old manuscripts showing textual variants on the passage? Theories without evidence are like ideas without any basis. I don't see any condoning of homosexuality. This sounds like a whole load of propaganda. The issue on authorship was viewed differently in the ancient time. Eg, A student of teachers X can write about the teacher but attribute it to the teacher. Even when the teacher actually wrote something down, it still had to be compiled and edited in a sensible flow...

The reason: A man could abandon an infant. In 15 or so years, he could visit a brothel and have sex (without knowing it) with his daughter or son. St. Clement's issue wasn't with prostitution or gay sex. His issue was incest.

The Bible condoned homosexuality because there is actually a gay couple in the bible, David and Jonathan, and the way their relationship is told in the Bible sounds like it was just more than just friendship. 1 Samuel 18:1 As soon as he had finished speaking to Saul, the soul of Jonathan was knit to the soul of David, and Jonathan loved him as his own soul. 1 Samuel 20:41 And as soon as the boy had gone, David rose from beside the stone heap and fell on his face to the ground and bowed three times. And they kissed one another and wept with one another, David weeping the most. 2 Samuel 1:26 "I am distressed for you, my brother Jonathan; very pleasant have you been to me; your love to me was extraordinary, surpassing the love of women."

The fact that X is not addressed is a valid point in that it implies that X was not an issue worth including. That is the proper basis of your argument. Personally, I dismiss the bible outright.

‎Moses speaking to Israel: וְאֶ֙ת־זָכָ֔ר לֹ֥א תִשְׁכַּ֖ב מִשְׁכְּבֵ֣י אִשָּׁ֑ה תּוֹעֵבָ֖ה הִֽוא (Lev18:22) 'You (men implied) shall not lie down with a man as with a woman...that is an *abomination" So unless you want to say that Moses is commanding all the men of Israel not to lie with ANY woman this sounds like a condemnation. Sort of like saying that: "Stop Children Crossing" means stop all the children from crossing the road.* *But the traditional view makes a GREAT TARGET for Ph.D. students to refute!* Nobody would give a Ph.D. for DEFENDING this position...would they!

Watch the video again and listen. That part was not in the earliest versions. Some prude added it later on. (I also doubt that Mr. D. Hammurabi would agree with most scholars that Moses was not a real person, but that's another topic.)

Wouldn't 'be fruitful and multiply' conflict with the original message found in Leviticus then? Or do you believe that was added when the Leviticus alterations took place?

According to the story that developed there were only two people on the planet at that time, begging many questions such as: where did Cain get his wife?

I'm confused, didn't you say "...all this video is intended to do is present a recent academic argument on the subject..." From the structure of this (summary) video it appears you are endorsing this view. Can you clarify? Shalom/Peace

No he isn’t. He couldn’t even show the change he states happened. People just WANT him to be right….doesn’t mean it is. There are other passages to explain.
