Synopsis: Gagnon offers the most thorough analysis to date of the biblical texts relating to homosexuality. He demonstrates why attempts to classify the Bible's rejection of same-sex intercourse as irrelevant for our contemporary context fail to do justice to the biblical texts and to current scientific data. Gagnon's book powerfully challenges attempts to identify love and inclusivity with affirmation of homosexual practice. ". . . the most sophisticated and convincing examination of the biblical data for our time."--Jürgen Becker, Professor of New Testament, Christian-Albrechts University
