Description

In this provocative theological work, Kayumba David sets out on a radical journey to examine the dissonance between the Old Testament portrayal of God and the revelation of divine love, grace, and justice found in the teachings of Jesus Christ and the Pauline epistles. With a critical eye, David uncovers the Old Testament's embedded systems of patriarchy, ethnocentrism, and state-sanctioned violence-often misrepresented as divine will.This book argues that what is often presented as the "Word of God" in the Hebrew Scriptures is in many cases the word of man clothed in the language of the divine. Yet, glimmers of redemptive hope in the Old Testament foreshadow the ultimate Christ event-a disruptive moment in human history that redefines God's nature as love and grace for all, not just for one tribe.
