David and Jonathan: The relationship between David and Jonathan has been held up as an example of same-sex love for centuries. While no one knows if theirs was a sexual relationship, they clearly shared a deep, intimate love for one another, a love blessed by God. In 2 Samuel 1:26, David mourns Jonathan, saying, “Greatly beloved were you to me; your love to me was wonderful, passing the love of women.” The Bible doesn’t shy away from the importance of their love and care for one another, and it never hints that there was anything unusual or shameful about their relationship, which suggests their same-sex love might not have been unique.
