{"product_id":"to-whom-belongs-the-land-von-ndikho-mtshiselwa","title":"To Whom Belongs the Land?","description":"The main question of this book, which focuses on the role of the Old Testament in the South African context, is: If reread from an African liberationist perspective in the context of land redistribution and socio-economic justice in South Africa, could the Israelite Jubilee legislation in Leviticus 25:8–55 offer liberating and empowering possibilities for the poor in South Africa? The exegesis of Leviticus 25:8–55 in which the historical-critical method is employed lays the foundation for the contextualisation of the issues arising from the exegesis. Furthermore, within the African liberationist framework, the South African context serves as a lens to interpret Leviticus 25:8–55. The striking parallels between the contexts from which the text of Leviticus 25:8–55 emerged and the context of the modern reader of the Bible in South Africa are shown. In the end, it is argued that when re-read from an African liberationist perspective and in the context of the land redistribution and socio-economic justice discourse, Leviticus 25:8–55 can contribute positively to the redress of inequality and consequently to poverty alleviation in South Africa.\u003cdiv class=\"aw-variant-hidden-subtitle-div\" id=\"aw-variant-subtitle-9781433138935\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eLeviticus 25 in an African Liberationist Reading\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Autorenwelt Shop","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover - 9781433138935","offer_id":39563677106269,"sku":"9781433138935","price":113.2,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/0622\/files\/73461_4bec5526-31f2-4ff9-ace1-819128c7ddce.jpg?v=1783397008","url":"https:\/\/shop.autorenwelt.de\/products\/to-whom-belongs-the-land-von-ndikho-mtshiselwa","provider":"Autorenwelt Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
