Homosexual "marriage" and Noah's ark.


I've found a brilliant piece of writing at The Christian Post by a man calling himself "Max Veritas."

"...The "Babylonian Talmud" – the book of rabbis' interpretation of the scriptures 1,000 years before Christ, there was only one time in history that reflects where we are right now. There was only one time in history, according to these writings, where men were given in marriage to men, and women given in marriage to women.

Want to venture a guess as to when? No, it wasn't in Sodom and Gomorrah, although that was my guess. Homosexuality was rampant there, of course, but according to the Talmud, not homosexual "marriage." What about ancient Greece? Rome? No. Babylon? No again. The one time in history when homosexual "marriage" was practiced was … during the days of Noah.

And according to Jeffrey Satinover, that's what the "Babylonian Talmud" attributes as the final straw that led to the Flood. Rabbi Aryeh Spero verified this to be true. Rabbi Spero spoke of God's compassion before the Flood, in hopes people would repent and turn back to His ways. He showed patience for hundreds of years.

But, he said, the Talmud's writings reveal that "before the Flood people started to write marriage contracts between men, in other words, homosexual 'marriage,' which is more than homosexual activity – it's giving an official state stamp of approval, a sanctification … of homosexual partnership." In fact, he said, "the writings indicated that it wasn't even so much the 'straw that broke the camel's back,' but that the sin in and of itself is so contrary to why God created the world, so contrary to the order of God's nature, that God said then and there 'I have to start all over … to annihilate the world and start from the beginning. …'"

Rabbi Spero went on to say, "Even in ancient Greece they did not write marriage contracts between men. There was homosexuality, and it was wrong, but there was not an official 'blessed' policy. … Marriage is 'sanctification' (not simply a partnership)." He said to confer the title of sanctification and holiness upon this behavior is "probably one of the greatest sins of all that one does against God's plan for this world." As it was in the days of Noah, so it will be at the coming of the Son of Man. – Mathew 24:37..."

  1. If you go to the source, you will find not the Talmud, but the Midrash Rabbah.
    Midrash is a way of interpreting biblical stories that fills in many gaps left in the biblical narrative that are only hinted at. In other words, the writing that says "men married men" in Noah's time was not in Jewish scripture, it was from the speculative writings of a rabbi long after the Babylonian era. 1961 is the date I have found. The claim is not Biblical, it is just one man's opinion. It has only been printed on websites that predict gay marriages will cause the end of the earth.

  2. 1. Can you provide a link that supports your claim?

    2. "...The claim is not Biblical, it is just one man's opinion. .."

    "...And according to Jeffrey Satinover, that's what the "Babylonian Talmud" attributes as the final straw that led to the Flood. Rabbi Aryeh Spero verified this to be true. .."

    That's TWO highly educated, God-fearing men.

    3. Jesus Christ specifically defined marriage as being between one man and one woman and eliminated many, if not all, sexuall sins in Matthew 19;4-6 http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew%2019:4-6&version=NIV
    How do you propose to "Midrash" the words of Jesus Christ himself?
