The Power of the Word: Scripture and the Rhetoric of Empire
Elisabeth Schussler Fiorenza
What is the purpose of reading the Bible? This title tackles the tough question of the Bible's role in the world and how its vision can further a more just world. It shows particularly the radical power of the Word to challenge imperial ways, the humiliation of persons, and the use of religion itself to keep people down.
