"The volume represents a most remarkable achievement . With encyclopedic breadth and extraordinary depth the author explores what the Old Testament has to say about every conceivable subject related to Human. sexuality. His discussions of the ancient Near Eastern cultural contexts, from which Old Testament writings emerged and to which they appear to have responded are exceptional; and his treatment of specific biblical passages in generally balanced and thorough. Regardless of where the reader find themselves in debates concerning sexual morality or gender relations, in the future, all who embrk on serious study of biblical perspectives on these issues would do well to start with Davidson's work. The bibliography alone takes up 140 pages".-backcvr.
