Understanding Jesus's Silence on Homosexuality

Jesus did not specifically address homosexuality, primarily because it was not a relevant issue for his Jewish audience, who already viewed it as a sin. His silence reflects an implicit affirmation of the Old Testament's stance on the matter, as he validated the scripture that condemns homosexual behavior. In contrast, Paul's letters were directed at Gentiles, who lacked the moral framework of the Jewish community, hence he directly addressed the immorality of homosexual acts. This consistent approach across the scriptures demonstrates that trying to exclude Jesus from the biblical dialogue on morality ultimately misrepresents his teachings.
