INCLUDED 2021: What Does The Bible Say? with Prof Dale B Martin

Conversations in churches about sexuality normally start by asking what the Bible ‘says,’ but the interpreter puts so many of their own assumptions into the text that it is often impossible to tell. Dale Martin explores the difficulties of Biblical interpretation and applies them to key texts about sexuality. Dale B. Martin is a New Testament scholar, and emeritus professor of religious studies at Yale University. He is an authority on the Bible and sexuality. His book Sex and the Single Saviour: Gender and Sexuality in Biblical Interpretation is an important work that deals with this topic.
