Conquest or Leaven – Fr David Neuhaus SJ
David Neuhaus unpacks his book 'Conquest or Leaven' (Camera & editing: Darlene Creamer)
A divided, traumatised and even dehumanised people such as those we find in the Holy Land – Palestine and Israel – is in life-giving need of transformation. In this book, Fr David Neuhaus SJ argues that the Christians of the Holy Land may play a key part in fostering such transformation — not as a neutral bridge, for Christian Palestinians are just as oppressed as their Muslim neighbours, but as a leaven in society.
Few are as well-placed to analyse the past, present and future of Palestine/Israel as Fr Neuhaus: the son of refugees from Nazism, raised in a Jewish family and later ordained a Jesuit Catholic priest, who grew up under South African apartheid and has lived as an Israeli citizen in Jerusalem for almost fifty years. His reflections, collected in this book, offer the reader an informed and empathetic overview of the issues and realities at stake, free from the propaganda and disinformation so common in much of the media. He also calls us to stand in solidarity with our Christian brothers and sisters in the Holy Land.
Who will step up to help heal the traumatised societies of the Holy Land — to be a voice for justice, an agent of peace, a guide towards the transformation that must come?
Günther Simmermacher, editor of The Southern Cross and author of The Holy Land Trek.
