Jesus Affirms All Identities

Christ's own words offer unconditional welcome, particularly to those outside traditional norms. We explore the historical context and radical inclusivity of the Gospels.

Matthew 19:12

Eunuchs in the First Century

The term 'eunuch' in the first-century Roman and Jewish world encompassed a spectrum of individuals living outside conventional gender and marriage expectations. Jesus's specific mention of them in Matthew 19:12 is a profound act of recognition and inclusion.

Christ's Own Words

For there are eunuchs who have been so from birth, and there are eunuchs who have been made eunuchs by men, and there are eunuchs who have made themselves eunuchs for the sake of the kingdom of heaven.

Matthew 19:12 (Red Letter Edition)
