Inhalt
»Sodomy« is a study of the reception of Genesis 19, Sodom and Gomorrah, together with the parallel story in Judges 19-21, the outrage of Gibeah, in both Jewish and Christian traditions from the antiquity through the Reformation period. The book sets out to detoxify the dominant homophobic interpretation of Genesis 19, in which Sodom and Gomorrah serve as an archetypal story of divine antipathy towards same-sex love and desire, by showing it to be a Christian invention, emerging in the first few centuries of the Christian era. The Jewish traditions concerning Genesis 19, in which Sodom and Gomorrah are associated with inhospitality, xenophobia and abuse of the poor, provide an alternative perspective on the story and one from which Christianity diverged.
