A Biblical Theology of Exile
Fortress Press, 2002 - 209 pages
The Christian church continues to seek ethical and spiritual models from
the period of Israel's monarchy and has avoided the gravity of the
Babylonian exile. Against this tradition, the author argues that the
period of focus for the canonical construction of biblical thought is
precisely the exile. Here the voices of dissent arose and articulated
words of truth in the context of failed power.
