This review is from: Jacob's Wound: Homoerotic Narrative in the Literature of Ancient Israel (Paperback)
Sadly, this is the only book I could find on the topic. It is a Christian interpretation of the Hebrew Bible. The problem being that the Hebrew Bible is very cryptic and almost every good interpretation is done by learned Jews.
