Maps and Meaning: Levitical Models for Contemporary Care
ఈ ఇ-పుస్తకం గురించి
Maps and Meaning is relevant to those
looking for a fresh perspective on biblical narratives related to the role of
the priest, patients, soldiers, and others who spend time “outside the camp.”
The authors consider the geographical, interpersonal, temporal, and spiritual
transitions individuals experience when they move “in” and “out of the camp”
and the impact their time outside the camp has on family and community. The
authors propose a societal approach that embraces the inevitability of life’s
ebbs and flow and that draws maps to facilitate these journeys.
