Synopsis

- Builds on the growing body of work around queer biblical exegesis – not least our own QBC which is now in its second edition- Contributions from important voices in the field including Adriaan van Klinken, Jione Havea and Lena-Sofia Tiemeyer What does it mean to be a prophet in queer times? Considering first the queerness of the prophet Jonah, this volume then broadens its scope to the queer prophetic in our own time, reflecting on what makes a prophet ‘queer’, and considering how public theology is itself, an example of the queer prophetic. With a broad range of international contributors, this book offers a bold and essential new addition to queer biblical studies literature.
