Confronting the Bible's Ethnic Cleansing in Palestine |
Issue: 2000, Volume 33, Issue 5 |
Subject: Christianity|History|Holy Land|Theology |
Author: Prior, Michael C. M. |
Issue Description: Is Yahweh the Great Ethnic-Cleanser? Did He not instruct the Israelites to rid their Promised Land of its indigenous people? Few biblical scholars want to wrestle with these questions. Rev. Michael Prior needs to wrestle with them. He's been to today's Holy Land and has seen today's variation on biblically sanctioned genocide. Dr. Prior is Professor of Biblical Sudies in the University of Surrey, England, and visiting professor in Bethlehem University, Palestine. He is a biblical scholar and author of "Zionism and the State of Israel: A Moral Inquiry" and "The Bible and Colonialism: A Moral Critique." |

Issue: 1999, Volume 32, Issue 2 |
Subject: Human Rights|Land and Homes|Refugees|War/Conflict |
Author: Hamzeh-Muhaisen, Muna |
Issue Description: What is it like to be on the receiving end of the longest military occupation in modern history? Muna Hamzeh-Muhaisen lived in Dheisheh, a refugee camp on the outskirts of Bethlehem, for more than a decade, including the period of the first intifada. This is her account of the people who have lived in Dheisheh all of their lives. As she notes, there is hardly a refugee in The Camp, young or old, who doesn’t remember the names of the camp’s victims and even the years of their untimely deaths. |
