Idan Dershowitz on the bible's perceptions of homosexuality

In a conversation with SBS Hebrew, Idan Dershowitz, a Jewish civilisation expert at Monash University, unpacks the Bible's historical attitudes toward homosexuality. Many people believe the Bible has a clear-cut negative stance, but Dershowitz argues that the views on same-sex relations were much more varied and nuanced than we might assume today.
