You Shall Love the Stranger as Yourself
The Bible, Refugees and Asylum
Fleur S Houston, Minister of the United Reformed Church
Series: Biblical Challenges in the Contemporary World
You Shall Love the Stranger as Yourself addresses the complex
political, legal, and humanitarian challenges raised by
asylum-seekers and refugees from a Biblical perspective. The
book explores the themes of humanity and justice through
exegesis of relevant passages in the Old and New Testaments,
skillfully woven into accounts of contemporary refugee
situations. Applying Biblical analysis to one of the most pressing
humanitarian concerns of modern times, Houston creates a
timely work that will be of interest to students and scholars of
theology, religion, and human rights.
