I am not defending the ethics of the context, as I said before.
Consent has no place in Levitical law. It simply not a variable. Rape your daughter-in-law or consensual sex… doesn’t matter, death to both. Rape or consensual sex with an aunt? Death to both. Screw an animal? Also death to both. Force one of your male slaves (of any age) to have sex with you the way you would freely do with a female slave (which would be your right)… death to both of you. These are “household” crimes and the household pays the price.
None of this is based on your modern morality, ethics, or sense or fairness or justice. It was written for you.
The framework for all this is actually clarified earlier, in Lev 19:20… in which crimes against someone else’s household (i.e. slaves) does NOT result in death.
I also already addressed Paul in my previous comment. Your assertion is incorrect.
Didn't acknowledge what I said about the Exodus
You haven't even attempted to mention what neighboring tribes said about the same thing or what people who lived under these rules had to say
Didn't acknowledge what Paul said. Very clear that he was upset about people being gay. Even if you say it was added on that wouldn't change anything from the Christian perspective since about half the letters are fraudulent.
Didn't acknowledge that Hebrew and Greek both have words for child
Sigh. Consent isn't in there? You sure?
I am sorry your holy book is homophobic. Maybe spend the time learning the languages it is written in if you want to follow it.
Are you confusing me with a different conversation?
