The word “homosexual” was invented in the 1800s, so this claim is just completely incorrect:
“In the summer of 2017, Kathy and Ed’s research* led them to Yale University, where they were the first two people to investigate what caused the 1946 R.S.V.** translation team - the first team in all of history - to use the word “homosexual” in any language. The translation team under the supervision of Dr. Luther Weigle combined two Greek words in the Biblical passage I Corinthians 6:9-10, “Malakoi” and “Arsenokoitai”, resulting in the modern term, “homosexual”.
It makes it sound like the RSV Bible translators came up with the word. This is from Wikipedia:
“The first known appearance of homosexual in print is found in an 1869 German pamphlet by the Austrian-born novelist Karl-Maria Kertbeny, published anonymously,[27] arguing against a Prussian anti-sodomy law.[27][28] In 1886, the psychiatrist Richard von Krafft-Ebing used the terms homosexual and heterosexual in his book Psychopathia Sexualis. Krafft-Ebing’s book was so popular among both laymen and doctors that the terms heterosexual and homosexual became the most widely accepted terms for sexual orientation.[29][30] As such, the current use of the term has its roots in the broader 19th-century tradition of personality taxonomy.”

Just because the English word homosexual was not used back then the meaning of the term was clearly understood.
The word "homosexual" is something of a monstrosity, like the word "television"--it combines a Greek root with a Latin root. The Modern Greek word for "homosexual" is omophylophilos, combining the roots for "same," "sex" and "friend."
The Bible became anti-gay whenever the story of Lot or the laws of Moses were written down, whichever was earlier.
I saw that as well, but then I re-read the text and believe the writer meant that this ‘team’ was the first to explicitly use the term ‘homosexual’ in a translation of the Bible...................
