| Summary: | This article interprets the body-related metaphors of Ezekiel 16 and 23 using Judith Butlers concept of vulnerability. Ezekiel diversely uses the (female) body in both chapters to show the ambiguity of human life. This allows Ezekiel to offer the Gola-group an analysis of their misery, that is open for the integration of their own experiences of violence. Using the vulnerable female body as a model, they can identify their pain and by doing so overcome on their personal catastrophe. From today’s perspective and following Butler this could initiate a process of grief, by sharing the experience of ‘having a body’ that is vulnerable and by doing so coming to understand – and possibly work with – one’s own vulnerability and that of others. |
