Take Back the Word - A Queer Reading of the Bible e-bog

Perhaps the most revolutionary contribution of "e;Take Back the Word"e; is its presentation of resistant practices of reading the Bible that challenge oppressive applications of Scripture to "e;clobber"e; queer folx. If lesbians, gay men, bisexuals, transgender, non-gender-conforming, and questioning people are to take back the word of Scripture for themselves, they must take it back in a new way. Essays examine queer strategies for reading, queer ethical models from the Hebrew Scriptures, and queer good news stories from the Christian Scriptures.
