The Suffering Servant of Second Isaiah offers an antidote to a world that is rapidly becoming more transactional in its relationships, a world in which Trump and Brexit and the growth of the far right in Europe and extremism globally, are not only likely but (frighteningly) probable. A literary reimagining of the Servant through the lens of the work of Mikhail Bakhtin offers insight into how the prophetic characterisation influenced Paul's construction of faith, hope and love as epistemologies (in Corinthians). This book provides new insight into how faith, hope and love act as a dynamic equilibrium of knowing that opens us up to lives of story, encounter, and innovation-lives that resonate with the suffering servant, and which challenge contemporary ideas of power, wisdom and prosperity.
