Parables As Subversive Speech - by William R Herzog II (Paperback)

The book "Herzog" by William Herzog is a groundbreaking work that challenges traditional interpretations of Jesus' parables.

Herzog reveals that these stories were not just moral tales, but rather a form of social analysis and theological reflection on the ways in which oppression served the interests of the ruling class.

Through a rigorous examination of the canonical form of the parables, Herzog demonstrates their dual nature and shows how they were used to critique the status quo.

This book is a must-read for anyone interested in understanding the true message of Jesus' teachings and the social context in which they were delivered.
