I’m Jewish and I support all people, regardless of their sexuality, romantic identity or gender identity.

"וַיִּבְרָ֨א אֱלֹהִ֤ים ׀ אֶת־הָֽאָדָם֙ בְּצַלְמ֔וֹ בְּצֶ֥לֶם אֱלֹהִ֖ים בָּרָ֣א אֹת֑וֹ זָכָ֥ר וּנְקֵבָ֖ה בָּרָ֥א אֹתָֽם׃”

“And God created humankind in God’s own Image, God created them: male and female, God created them.”  (Gen. 1:27)

In and out of Synagogue, we pray to the One who created us in Their Image. We feel obligated to show everyone the same basic respect as people are בצלמו, in God’s Image.  As Jews and human beings we are curious by nature and therefore we honor the wonderful research that medical professionals have made in the fields of gender, romantic and sexuality identities as well as in mental health. 

Although the text specifically mentions זכר ונכבה, male and female, we understand that the ancient biblical writers who interpreted God’s creations did not have an understanding of gender other than man and woman.  But the texts mention of multiple genders (rather than simply אדם, man) can illicit contemporary understandings of the text. One can interpret it to mean that God created all people, thus all of our genders.

Those who experience a gender that is not cisgender, or a sexual/romantic identity that is not straight, are holy.  Their holiness teaches the rest of society to become more tolerant.

Eve's - Prayer

Genesis 2:15-25:3 Let’s praise God for creating woman in His image! We are capable of so much! Let us give God Thanksgiving for being the one to crush the head of our enemy! Do you often prefer your will to God’s Will in your life? Have you surrendered your life to God so you can fulfill the purpose He has for your life? Do you die to your self daily?

Who Is God and What Does He Look Like?

What is God like? Explore His attributes, biblical descriptions, and the meaning of His name.

How are we supposed to imagine God? Does He have a form, or is He just an invisible force?

What does the bible say about AI? | Faith, Ethics, and Prophecy

💭 "Only God gives life..." AI can create, mimic, simulate — but it cannot breathe life. 📖 Genesis 2:7

27 So God created human beings in his own image. In the image of God he created them; male and female he created them.
