Homosexuality Is Not Mentioned in the Torah


Homosexuality is not mentioned in the Torah.
The other day I read about Yeshiva University “tolerating” (not so much, either) LGBTQIA students and professors, while from the other side of their mouths they aver that homosexuality and whatever their authorities read into that word is against Jewish law.
I believe it was back in 1975 that a religious Christian individual pointed to “what it says in Leviticus,” accusing me of defending persons who were sinners under what he called my own laws, and I did a deep dive into what it actually says in Leviticus 20:13 and 18:22.
The passages proscribe a husband from lying with a male as with a wife.  In 20:13, “ish” and “ishah” are co-equals, a husband and wife.  “Zakhar” is the “male.”  Lying with someone as with a woman is absolutely not homosexuality.  A gay man is not lying with a woman at all.
