A Less Innocent Love (Parashat Vaetchanan)

August 05, 2006 | By Jay Michaelson

Topic(s): Dating and Relationships

Media Type(s): Torah Commentary

This resource is part of the Torah Queeries collection.

The author explores the characteristics of love in different religious and secular writing and argues that queer religious love, when it is realized, is necessarily self-aware, because it has been tested, as Abraham’s love was tested.
