That is to say, straining to foist modern constructs of “gay” (in previous generations seen not as a lifestyle, but just a sexual option in a world that largely saw all folks as hetersexual, with others inclined to “extra curriculars”….) well straining to turn these two into pre-modern boyfriends on the evidence of how close they were…

I can’t help but wonder if that won’t backfire if and when heterosexual men who nowadays might share a close friendship with a co-religionist scratch their head and say rather bluntly “So being good friends with someone you face persecution alongside means it is safe to assume they are homosexual lovers?”

RE the “gayness” of: “Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity!” … You may want to take a quick look-see at Psalm 133, verse 1.
