Queering the Prophet: On Jonah, and Other Activists

What does it mean to be a prophet in queer times? Considering first the queerness of the prophet Jonah, this volume then broadens its scope to the queer prophetic in our own time, reflecting on what makes a prophet 'queer', and considering how public theology is itself, an example of the queer prophetic.

With a broad range of international contributors, this book offers a bold and essential new addition to queer biblical studies literature.
