The book, Torah Queeries: Weekly Commentaries on the Hebrew Bible, is being published this month by NYU Press. Its contributors include prominent advocates within the Jewish LGBT community, including Rabbi Steven Greenberg, said to be the first openly gay Orthodox rabbi, as well as leading rabbis across the denominational landscape who are not gay but urge varying degrees of acceptance within their denominations.
"This is the first time we are bringing voices to bear on issues of sex and gender specific to the Jewish community," said [Gregg Drinkwater, one of the book's three editors] in a phone interview. "We also want to show the ways in which the Torah speaks in affirmation and in an engaging and in-depth way to contemporary sexuality, gender, and LGBT issues."
