For four decades now, Marc H. Ellis has sought to rethink Jewish
tradition in light of the prophetic imperative, especially with
regard to the need for geopolitical justice in the context of
Israel/Palestine. Here, twenty-two contributors offer intellectual,
theological, political, and journalistic insight intoEllis's work,
connecting his theological scholarship to the particularities of
their own contexts. Some contributors reflect specifically on
Israel/Palestine while others transfer Ellis's theopolitical
discussions to other geopolitical, cultural, or religious concerns.
Yet all of them rely on Ellis's work to understand the connections
of prophetic discourses, religious demands, social movements, and
projects of social justice. Paying particular attention to global
racism, sexism, ethnocentrism, white supremacy, and current
neocolonial practices, the contributors also address minoritized
liberation theologies, the role of memory, exile and forgiveness,
biblical hermeneutics, and political thought. In diverse and
powerful ways, the contributors ground their scholarship with the
activist drive to deepen, enrich, and strengthen intellectual work
in meaningful ways.
