(See Lev. 20:26) Penetrative sex of a man, a Canaanite idolatrous practice, was seen as using a man like a woman, a blurring of the distinction between sexes, and thus to be avoided in maintaining ritual purity. In the New Testament, Paul says that in Christ distinctions between Jew and gentile are done away with.
(Tazama Mambo ya Walawi 20:26). Ngono ya kumpen-ya mwanamume, ambayo ilikuwa ni desturi katika ibada ya kuabudu miungu ya Kanani, ilionekana kama kumtumia mwanamume kama mwanamke, na kutoweka mipanga kamili kati ya mwanamume na mwanamke, na hivyo ilipaswa kuepukwa ili kudumisha utakatifu.
