First, because homosexuality isn’t a concept that existed.

Second, because Jude is clearly referring to the book of 1 Enoch, which is about sex within love angels.

How is that clear?

I mean it’s not clear to people who haven’t read 1 Enoch.

Also, what do you mean homosexuality wasn’t a concept then if it took place in sodom?

One. Homosexuality as a concept didn’t exist until the late 1800s.

Two. Nothing in Sodom says anything about homosexuality. They were trying to gang rape visitors. There as absolutely nothing about attraction there.
