Summary
A Palestinian liberation theologian, one of Sabeel’s founders, cited in Lybarger’s Chapter 3 for the Christian variation of the religious standpoint and encountered by Hanna at Sabeel in 2010 (Palestinian Chicago — Identity in Exile, PDF p.108, p.143).
Details
- The Christian variation of the salvific standpoint is articulated in the writings of Palestinian liberation theologians drawing on biblical prophetic discourse for “justice and only justice” and “a new heaven and a new earth” in the Holy Land (Ateek 1989; Ateek, Ellis, and Ruether 1992) (PDF p.107-108 / printed p.86-87).
- Hanna recalled: “Qissis Na’im [Fr. Naim Ateek, one of Sabeel’s founders] explained that Jesus lived under occupation just like we did” (PDF p.143 / printed p.122).
