We are delighted to have just received advance copies of the new paperback edition of Contending for Justice from the printer. Look out for it at SBL!
Contending for Justice analyses texts on social justice in the Old Testament as the rhetoric of interested parties in specific social situations, and argues that despite their ideological character they may still assist in shaping a Christian theological approach to social and global injustice.
This new paperback edition is fully revised and updated throughout with chapter two having been completely re-written to take account of more recent debates.
