Set Them Free

Publisher Marketing: A fresh look at the Exodus story that opens our eyes to injustice in today's world. ""A remarkable book of contextual biblical studies . . . Dykstra's subject is the story of Exodus, not as told by the slaves, but from the perspective of the Egyptian empire. There she finds a haunting mirror of North American culture, of its oppression, self-aggrandizement, and brutal racism. The result is a splendid work of public theology."" --Kathleen M. O'Connor, Columbia Theological Seminary ""The late Robert McAfee Brown used to worry about how we North American Christians, with our vantage point from 'within Pharaoh's household, ' might legitimately respond to Third World liberation theology's appropriation of the Exodus story. Now from the heart of the Catholic Worker movement comes just such a reading, and it is fresh, literate, and deeply engaged. A sophisticated and compelling project."" --Ched Myers, author, Binding the Strong Man ""Prophetic, critical, and passionate. Never before has there been a volume that offers such a profound critical theological and social reflection on a biblical text, the world that shaped it, and the contemporary community who now reads it . . . This book is one of the best that I have read in a long, long time."" --Carol Dempsey, editor, Theology and Sacred Scripture Laurel Dykstra is an Anglican priest, community-based activist, and scholar in Vancouver, BC.
