First published over ten years ago, The Queer Bible Commentary brings
together the work of several scholars and pastors known for their
interest in the areas of gender, sexuality and Biblical studies.
Contributors draw on feminist, queer, deconstructionist, utopian
theories, the social sciences and historical-critical discourses. The
focus is both how reading from lesbian, gay, bisexual and/or transgender
perspectives affect the reading and interpretation of biblical texts
and how biblical texts have and do affect LGBTQ+ communities.
This
revised 2nd edition includes updated bibliographies and chapters taking
into account the latest literature relating to queer interpretation of
scripture.
