{"product_id":"sodomy-michael-carden-9781904768302","title":"Sodomy: A History of a Christian Biblical Myth","description":"The biblical narrative of Sodom and Gomorrah has served as an archetypal story of divine antipathy towards same sex love and desire. 'Sodomy' offers a study of the reception of this story in Christian and Jewish traditions from antiquity to the Reformation. The book argues that the homophobic interpretation of Sodom and Gomorrah is a Christian invention which emerged in the first few centuries of the Christian era. The Jewish tradition - in which Sodom and Gomorrah are associated primarily with inhospitality, xenophobia and abuse of the poor - presents a very different picture. The book will be of interest to students and scholars seeking a fresh perspective on biblical approaches to sexuality.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Michael Carden\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 190476830X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781904768302\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/01\/2004\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 242\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.86lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.28h x 6.14w x 0.23d","brand":"Michael Carden","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44074076963071,"sku":"9781904768302","price":48.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_4894bc3f-89c5-4ea1-a0f4-21685f2a5c6a.jpg?v=1685451643","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/sodomy-michael-carden-9781904768302","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
