Here's the description of the book. It's a reflection on the jewish faith and same-sex love. I'm not jewish, but my best friend is, and she thought the passage was sweet so she sent me that image. Idk wether she has read the entire thing or if she found this bit online, though, so I can't really give you context for now
It isn't quite true to say that Hebrew and Greek had words for homosexuality, but they did have extensive vocabularies for discussing sexual relationships between men.
In the New Testament, the Greek vocabulary for sex between men is not used. There are a couple of resources that go into this.
I'm not as well-versed in the Hebrew side of things, but the book Wrestling with God and Men is a good place to start.
Steven Greenberg, who wrote Wrestling with God and Men, perhaps?
