Publisher's Description
In Unexpected News, Robert McAfee Brown looks at ten biblical texts through a new lens. Brown’s analysis is concerned with how our reading of the Bible is dependent on our experiences and worldview. Brown sets out to understand how “third world Christians,” that is, Christians who live in poverty and powerlessness, interpret the Bible. Brown argues that by reading the Bible in new ways, we can learn more about other cultures as well as gain a new understanding of the biblical message.
