Misinterpretation of Leviticus[edit]

I'm surprised this has never even been mentioned. There is a website (hoperemainsonline.com) which advances the argument that the entire Abrahamic prohibition against homosexuality is based on a misreading of Leviticus 18:22. If the text is examined word-by-word in the original, we find that its meaning is by no means clear. What the text actually says is And with a male thou shalt not lie down in a woman's bed. What it seems to be considering an abomination is for two men to lie with (and presumably have sex with) the same woman on the same occasion. It doesn't mention anal intercourse with anyone.

Homosexuality and Judaism → Jewish views on homosexuality – More precise title that matches the content of the article. The article does not cover the comparison of Jews with homosexuals (or homophobia with antisemitism), a common frame of reference since the nineteenth century, eg.: [1][2][3][4][5] connections between queer theory and Judaism([6][7] or various books by Daniel Boyarin), sociological research of people who are both gay and Jewish[8], the role of homosexuality in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict (see pinkwashing), antisemitism in LGBT movements (for example, [9]), or other interconnections between homosexuality and Judaism. I do not think it would be possible or desirable to write an article that attempts to cover all these topics, only related in a very vague sense. "And" is discouraged in article titles especially when ambiguous, and the proposed title matches similar articles (see All pages with titles containing Jewish views).

Kippah or Yarmulke?[edit]

I don't know how to edit captions, but the picture of the man wearing a rainbow kippah is captioned as "A Jewish Pride participant wears a rainbow yarmulke at the 2015 Marcha Gay of Mexico City", but he's wearing a kippah. A yarmulke is longer, and sits on your head differently. Aromantic Frogge (talk) 13:06, 17 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Missing discussion of Karaite and Haymanot Judaism[edit]

This article mentions many denominations of rabbinic Judaism, but it does not address Haymanot and Karaite Judaism. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 132.77.179.20 (talk) 13:13, 24 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Leviticus 20:13 and pederasty[edit]

I'm surprised to find no mention of this, but there is an interpretation of Leviticus 20:13 that it is not about condemning homosexuality per se but rather pederasty. See for instance the article https://jewishstandard.timesofisrael.com/redefining-leviticus-2013/ or https://www.bibleandhomosexuality.org/does-leviticus-mean-homosexuality-is-an-abomination/ or https://um-insight.net/perspectives/has-%E2%80%9Chomosexual%E2%80%9D-always-been-in-the-bible/ . I believe this would be worth at least a mention. It's not an isolated case, and these articles go back to the original text to try and clarify the issue. Surely worth a mention. 2001:8A0:7C19:2801:A9F9:1EA2:4642:66DC (talk) 23:56, 20 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
