WASHINGTON (AP) " The Justice Department said Thursday that it intends to try Kilmar Abrego Garcia on federal smuggling charges in Tennessee before it moves to deport him, addressing fears that he could be expelled again from the U.S. within days. U.S. Magistrate Judge Barbara Holmes in Nashville, Tennessee, recently ruled that Abrego Garcia has a right to be released from jail while awaiting trial on the smuggling charges. But she decided Wednesday to keep him in custody for at least a few more days over concerns that U.S. immigration officials would swiftly detain him and try to deport him again.

"In Revelation 2:20, though, Jesus doesn't reserve his judgment for only those who engage in homosexual sex. He also condemns false teachers who mislead people into practicing homosexuality."

Revelation 2:20
Nevertheless, I have this against you: You tolerate that woman Jezebel, who calls herself a prophet. By her teaching she misleads my servants into sexual immorality and the eating of food sacrificed to idols.

So who is this "Jezebel" that Boaz refers to?

Not the Jezebel of The Bible. The Jezebel constructed by 20th Century Christians.
Notice that Boaz can't cite from his own knowledge of The Bible where Jesus condemns homosexuality.
Let me also point out how cocksure Boaz is that his obviously politicized interpretation of Scripture is right. Even though he can't quote it.

Here is the truth of what you believe in.
It is not The Bible.
It is the Patriarchy.
Though, of course, you believe those two things are synonymous!

Jezebel
en.wikipedia.org
Cultural symbol
According to Geoffrey Bromiley, the depiction of Jezebel as "the incarnation of Canaanite cultic and political practices, detested by Israelite prophets and loyalists, has given her a literary life far beyond the existence of a ninth-century Tyrian princess."[17]
Through the centuries, the name Jezebel came to be associated with false prophets. By the early 20th century, it was also associated with fallen or abandoned women.[52] By the 1950s and 1960s, the figures of Jezebel in 1 and 2 Kings and the Jezebel of Revelation began to be conflated and became "a trope for women".[53] In Christian lore, a comparison to Jezebel suggested that a person was a pagan or an apostate masquerading as a servant of God. By manipulation and seduction, she misled the saints of God into sins of idolatry and sexual immorality.[54] In particular, Christians associated Jezebel with promiscuity and the usurpation of male authority.[53]
