Description
Exile as Forced Migrations examines contemporary peoples in flight and plight to help reconstruct the exilic experience of Judeo-Babylonians in the 6th century B.C.E. Framing this monograph are economics of migration and its impact on each respective generation, recent sociological studies on forced migration theories, displacement and resettlement issues, historical, literary and theological views on the first generation's laments , the in-between generation's hope , new creation in the second generation, and finally, home for the third and subsequent generations.
Review:
A.'s sociological anatomy establishes a major foundation for biblical scholarship on exile. Each of the four chapters on the biblical texts provides frontier scholarship. I excitedly anticipate how this astute methodology can be applied to the pertinent issues in Ezra-Nehemiah, Chronicles, and other books written in the Persian period and beyond.
