For Christians seeking deeper biblical insights on exile

Challenges the view of exile as merely punishment

You will find hope and purpose in life's difficult seasons

This book explores the theme of exile in the Bible, reframing it as a journey for God's people.

The Exile in the Old Testament is frequently portrayed as a sign of failure and judgement, the inevitable consequence of human disobedience. Turning this idea on its head, John Holdsworth asks whether being in exile is not in fact the proper state for God's pilgrim people to be.
