March 24, 2007 | By Rabbi Joshua Lesser

Media Type(s): Torah Commentary

Textual Source: Leviticus

Torah Portion: Vayikra

This resource is part of the Torah Queeries collection.

The author ruminates on the word “Ayeca?”/”Where are you?” which God calls to the first human creations, and addresses gay Jewish men in Jewish communal life: Where are you? Gay men participate in smaller numbers than lesbians in Jewish life. It is our responsibility as gay Jews to undertake our own self examination.
