- catalog abstract "Applying Norman Gottwald's thesis on Israel's origins, Ceresko argues that Israel was formed through a process of social revolution, inspired by the memory of runaway slaves and their worship of a God whose cult mandated radical social equality and justice. The subsequent history is viewed in terms of the people's faithfulness to this covenant, expressed not only in worship but in the practice of justice and mercy.--From publisher's decription.".
