Disability and Isaiah's Suffering Servant

Más información sobre el libro

The book explores the "Suffering Servant" figure in Isaiah 53, presenting a reinterpretation that emphasizes disability. Jeremy Schipper argues that the servant is depicted using language and imagery linked to disability, contrasting with traditional views of an able-bodied individual enduring suffering. This fresh perspective invites readers to reconsider the implications of disability within the biblical text and its broader cultural context in the ancient Near East.
