Description: This volume reveals Brueggemann's understanding that divine liberation from exploitation and acquisitiveness also means liberation for generous action for the common benefit.

This salvation involves not the security of the individual soul but a wholehearted transformation of social identities and relationships.

With the gift of deliverance, dramatically enacted in the Hebrew people's being led out from the oppression of pharoah, comes the task of obedience, articulated in the covenantal laws given at Mount Sinai, in the wilderness, and beyond.

Brueggemann shows how this double theme of the gift and the task is forged in the exodus narrative, then re-enacted in salvation motifs throughout the Bible.
