Abstract
This article starts with two introductory remarks: the first concerns the role of exegesis in this dialogue, while the second sheds some light on the different views about the locus of meaning. The next section deals with the three Old Testament texts (Gen 19:5; Lev 18:22; Lev 20:13) in which mention is made of homo-erotic deeds. Each text is discussed with reference to different translations, some grammatical and semantic information, as well as exegetical results. The article closes with a few conclusions from the exegetical results, as well as a plea for the involvement of (inter alia) the biblical wisdom traditions in the dialogue.
