People ask us about intimacy and the Torah. See Torah Teachings about Intimacy and What Sex is Permitted.
No doubt you, as many other people, are concerned about the religious Torah view of homosexuality and sexuality. You are invited to ask here what you wish. We believe that sexuality is something to be studied. Indeed, the famous classic known as "the holy Shelo" tells how people would give public lectures on the laws of sexuality. The family and the Jewish people, society itself, need the foundations of a stable and satisfying sexuality.
Sexuality and morality are rooted in other issues. For instance, we believe in the Torah and Sinai because we believe in Creation. If there was no Creation there is no authority for the Torah. We believe in the rabbis because we believe in Sinai. If there was no divine revelation at Sinai, we would not accept rabbinical opinions. Therefore, we present here various articles contending with the issues of the day that indirectly are the basis of morality and eventually, sexuality. Some are not directly relevant to sexuality or its sources, however.
We offer here various articles for your perusal. If you have any comments, please let us know.
