According to Leviticus 20:13: “If a man lies with a man as one lies with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination they shall surely be put to death their blood shall be upon them.” Two verses in Leviticus (Leviticus 18:23 and Leviticus 20:13) express unequivocal condemnation of male homosexual sex (although it is not clear whether what is referred to is intercourse or all sexual acts between men). The sources of Judaism’s traditional position on homosexuality and gay issues are well known. My Jewish Learning is a not-for-profit and relies on your help Donate
