I’m a rabbi, and so I’m particularly saddened whenever religious arguments
are brought in to defend social prejudices — as they often are in the
discussion about transgender rights. In fact, the Hebrew Bible, when read in
its original language, offers a highly elastic view of gender. And I do
mean highly elastic: In Genesis 3:12, Eve is referred to as “he.” In
Genesis 9:21, after the flood, Noah repairs to “her” tent. Genesis 24:16
refers to Rebecca as a “young man.” And Genesis 1:27 refers to Adam as “
them.”
Surprising, I know. And there are many other, even more vivid examples: In
Esther 2:7, Mordecai is pictured as nursing his niece Esther. In a similar
way, in Isaiah 49:23, the future kings of Israel are prophesied to be “
nursing kings.” | J*******g

但并不是说上帝是男人或者女人，而是说男人和女人都是有上帝的形象的。
这都能被人胡搅，只能说明人的罪性和反叛。 | b********n

and female He created them. - Genesis 1:27
Jesus answered, “Have you not read that from the beginning the Creator ‘
made them male and female’ and said, ‘For this reason a man will leave his
father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one
flesh’? - Matthew 19:4-5 |
