In 1999, Rabbi Steven Greenberg became the first Orthodox rabbi to openly declare his homosexuality. This book is the result of his ten-year struggle to reconcile his two warring identities. Using traditional rabbinic resources, he presents readers with surprising biblical interpretations, going beyond the question of whether homosexuality is biblically acceptable, to ask how such relationships can be sacred.
