The Talmud is very complicated, not every statement is a
law, sometimes it is a commentary or the opinion of a certain Rabbi, sometimes
a stipulation or refutation, however the quotes below should give you a good
idea about Talmudic reasoning on certain issues.
The Talmud likens male homosexuality to bestiality and
claims that Jews in general are suspected of neither, the punishment of
homosexuality is stoning to death. As for Lesbianism, the Talmud
states that women who have sex with other women are not fit to marry a priest
and some Rabbis do not allow their daughters to sleep together to avoid such a
situation. There is little doubt that today’s calls to have
homosexuals killed or the all to often likening of homosexuality to
bestiality comes from the influence of Jewish scripture.
Homosexuality And Bestiality Linked… Jews Are Not Suspected Of
Such Behavior
“Mishna: Rabbi Judah said: An unmarried man must not tend cattle, nor may two unmarried men sleep together under the same cover. But the Sages permitted it. Gemara: What is the reason? Said they to R. Judah, Israel are not suspected of either pederasty or bestiality.” – Babylonian Talmud, Kuddushin
Homosexual Men & Bestiality Mentioned In The Same Mishna, Homosexuals Should Be Stoned To Death, So Should Raped Animals
“MISHNAH. HE WHO COMMITS SODOMY WITH A MALE OR A BEAST, AND
A WOMAN THAT COMMITS BESTIALITY ARE STONED. IF THE MAN HAS SINNED, WHEREIN HAS THE ANIMAL OFFENDED? BUT BECAUSE MAN WAS ENTICED TO SIN THEREBY,28 SCRIPTURE ORDERED THAT IT SHOULD BE STONED. ANOTHER REASON IS THAT THE ANIMAL SHOULD NOT PASS THROUGH THE STREETS, WHILST PEOPLE SAY, THIS IS THE ANIMAL ON ACCOUNT OF WHICH SO AND SO WAS STONED.” – 1962 Soncino Babylonian Talmud, Sanhedrin 54a
Lesbianism Are Lewd And Disqualified From Marrying A Priest
“R. Huna said: Women who practise lewdness with one another are disqualified from marrying a priest.” – 1962 Soncino Baylonian Talmud, Yabamoth 76a
Rabbi Does Not Allow His Daughters To Sleep In The Same
Bed To Avoid Lesbianism
“He did not permit them to sleep together’. Shall we say that this supports R. Huna? For R. Huna said: Women that commit lewdness with one another are unfit for the priesthood. [30]- 1962 Babylonian Talmud, Shabbath 65a
FOOTNOTE 30: Sc. to marry a High Priest, who must marry none but a virgin (Lev. XXI, 13), for their lewdness destroys their virginity. Though there were no High Priests in his days, he nevertheless objected to this on grounds of decency, and therefore may have taken steps to prevent it. — V. Weiss, Dor, I , 23.
