Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

. . . these essays cover much ground, provoke needed thought on topics raised, and challenge us to take seriously the example of the office of prophecy presented in the Bible. While not pretending to have the ultimate answers for a weary world, these authors do offer serious discussion on crucial methods for tackling the tasks ahead. * Journal of Church and State *

Reseña del editor:

Written by prominent scholars from a wide range of disciplines, this diverse collection of essays discusses the contemporary relevance of the prophetic mode and challenges in the areas of religion, politics, and society. The contributors critically investigate the creative interaction between the religious and secular domains and explain how the prophetic mode can provide solutions to pressing problems such as war, oppression, poverty, hunger, and discrimination. The essays explore possibilities of achieving an integration of prophetic ethics, social scientific understanding, and democratic and constitutional statecraft and they describe how the prophetic mode currently manifests itself in political philosophy, history, religion, and literature.
