A fresh look at the Bible reveals a richness of insight about sex
and sexuality For some people, the Bible’s perspectives on sex
may seem too one-dimensional or antiquated to apply to modern-day
life. Others may hold up the Bible as the ultimate moral guideline
when it comes to sex and human sexuality. A close reading of the
Bible reveals that while its rules and lessons about sex and
sexuality may not be applicable to all people at all times, this
sacred scripture does offer surprising insight into our modern
sexual lives. This intriguing guide demystifies the Bible,
synthesizing basic historical, theological, literary and linguistic
ideas about the Bible’s texts with our modern attitudes about
sex. Thoughtful new translation and provocative commentary bridge
the divide between biblical authority and our present-day views on
gender roles, marriage, sexual orientation, virginity, lust and
sexual pleasure. Drawing from Hebrew and Christian scripture, it
examines the ways that the language of religion and the language of
sex intersect. Now you can discover what the Bible says about sex
with no previous background in theology or religious history. This
SkyLight Illuminations edition offers insightful and engaging
commentary that explains the historical context and religious
worldviews of those who wrote the Bible as well as the role their
perspectives play in current social debates. You will be encouraged
to form your own opinion about what the Bible has to say about sex
and gain a deeper understanding of your own sexuality.
