The translation of arsenokoitai as "homosexual" in this passage is misleading. It's funny that the Bible translation uses "homosexual," because it is never translated that way in any other text.

In what other text does arsenokoitai appear, and how is it translated in that other text?

[Kleon]

It's usually translated as meaning a male pervert, prostitute or child molester. The sex of the victim or reciever is unimportant.

I think it's important to note that the word is not found in the diologues of Plato (or any pre-scripture Greek authors) who certainly would have used a word meaning "homosexual" if it was in his lexicon.
