The Word That Redescribes the World provides sharp insight from the Old Testament on Christian communities in today's global context.

Brueggemann explores how the people of Israel in the Old Testament provide a model of an alternative anti-imperialist community which offers new possibilities today.

The book is divided into three parts

1 The Word Redescribing the World
2 The Word Redefining the Possible
3 The Word shaping a Community of Discipleship
