What Was the Sin of Sodom: Homosexuality, Inhospitality, or Something Else?: Reading Genesis 19 as Torah - Paperback
by Brian Neil Peterson (Author)
Virtually every scholar on both sides of the same-sex discussion eventually addresses the account of Sodom found in Genesis 19. However, in recent years, scholars have tended to downplay the importance of this chapter in relation to this debate. This book challenges this trend and seeks to demonstrate how the account of Sodom plays a key role in our understanding of a God-ordained sexual ethic, especially in light of Genesis as Torah--instruction for both ancient Israel and for the Church.
