The Hebrew word Qadesh means “holy,”
but was used euphemistically
so to circumlocute
male temple prostitutes,
but had naught to do with “sodomy.”
1 Kings 14: 24 / 15: 12 / 22:46 / 2 Kings 23: 7 (in the KJV)

Biblical Limericks: Sodomite Was a Poor Choice of Words
The Hebrew word Qadesh means “holy,”
but was used euphemistically
so to circumlocute
male temple prostitutes,
but had naught to do with “sodomy.”
1 Kings 14: 24 / 15: 12 / 22:46 / 2 Kings 23: 7 (in the KJV)
