One of the local Episcopal churches is having a rabbi come and talk to them about sexuality in the Old Testament. From a strictly academic stand point that sounds somewhat intriguing, but why a rabbi? Jews and Christians read the OT very differently (they don't see Jesus where we do). So, why would I necessarily want to hear what a rabbi has to say about sexuality in the OT? Why not invite a seminary professor or a member of the clergy who is an expert in this field?
And why sexuality? Don't Episcopalians appear obsessed with sex anyway? What about finances or the environment? Anything but sex.
