Prophets in Exile: Ezekiel, Daniel, and Obadiah by Harold Lerch Pdf
This book is about the “exile” prophets, Ezekiel, Daniel, and Obadiah. That is, those prophets who lived under Babylonian captivity. Ezekiel was a priest and was among the Jewish exiles carried away to Babylon during the deportation of Judah after King Nebuchadnezzar’s conquest. He was a man of formidable integrity and purpose, entirely devoted to the practices of Judaism. Like Daniel and the Apostle John, his prophecy follows the method of symbolism and vision. The Book of Daniel, like The Revelation in the New Testament, is called an apocalypse, which means “unveiling.” The use of apocalypses were given to show the reality behind that which was apparent, and to indicate the eventual victory of righteousness upon the earth. Little is known about Obadiah. The theme of his book is the Doom of Edom– the nation descended from Esau.

Exile as Forced Migrations injects cutting edge studies on forced migrations (DIDPS, IDPs, Refugee studies), displacement and resettlement, and generational issues that mark the exilic period (6th century B.C.E.). Founder and co-chair of the “Exile/Forced Migrations in Biblical Literature” (Society of Biblical Literature) and a member of the American Sociological Association (International Migration Section), Ahn furnishes biblical scholars with up-to-date sociological information to examine critically, the exile as forced migrations in the cadre of economics of migrations. Biblically speaking, Ahn isolates the three varying views on the exile. The 70 years in Babylon is cast as three and a half generations, with each Judeo-Babylonian generation (first-“1.5”-second-third) responding to its own set of issues and concerns (Ps 137, Jer 29, Isa 43, Num 32). This definitive work reframes the approach to study of the exilic period, as “generation-units”, sociologically, from the first forced migration in 597 B.C.E. to the first return migrations in 538 B.C.E. Exile as Forced Migrations goes beyond traditional emphasis on an important edifice and its institution. It rightfully returns to peoples in flight and plight.

In Exile, Incorporated, author Rosanne Liebermann argues that the biblical book of Ezekiel makes rhetorical use of the human body to construct a specific in-group identity for its ancient Judean audience--namely Judeans who experienced forced migration to Babylon in the sixth century BCE. As Liebermann shows, Ezekiel encourages certain bodily practices within this group that identifies them as "true" Judeans, while also evoking feelings of disgust regarding the bodies of those who do not conduct such practices. In this way, Ezekiel encouraged an isolationist Judean identity that could survive displacement from the homeland.
This book offers an account of exile in terms of the perspectives of morality, politics, literature, anthropology, and history. It also explores the moral implications of exile and how it connects to the meaning of life.
