| 520 | |a The worrisome growth of nationalism and ethnicism worldwide emphasizes the distance between state and nation, geographical borders, and the sense of a shared common project, which is at the heart of nation-building. The problem is not new, as the ancient writings of Israel testify. The question of what constitutes Israelite identity is central to post-exilic books, where exclusive-isolationistic and inclusive attitudes are clearly contraposed. Against this background, the paper explores the relationship between identity construction and nation-building, through an intercultural reading of Isaiah 56-66. Furthermore, it examines the relevance of the literary unit for contemporary Ghanaian society where ethnic divisions seem to compromise nation-building and development. The text challenges Ghanaian Christians to employ a language of inclusion; to recognize the ‘other’ as a specific message of God; to go beyond accidental attributes such as ethnicity, gender, or race, to discover the image and likeness of God reflected in her/his countenance. | ||
| 520 | |a 摘要令人担忧的世界性的民族主义和种族主义的增长，突出了国家和民族之间的距离: 即在地理边界和分享一个共同项目之间，而共同项目是国家建设的核心。正如以色列的古代著作所证明的那样，这个问题并不新鲜。以色列人身份的问题，是后流放性经书的核心，排他性的孤立主义和包容性态度显然相反对立。在此背景下，本文通过对以赛亚 56-66 的跨文化解读，探讨了身份建构与国家建构之间的关系。此外，它审查了文学作品对当代加纳社会的相关性，那里的种族分裂似乎损害了国 家建设和发展。文中挑战加纳基督徒使用包容性的语言: 承认"他者"是上帝的具体信息: 超越肤色、性别或种族等偶然属性，发现神的形象和样式反映在她/他的 面容中。 | ||
| 520 | |a ResumenEl preocupante crecimiento del nacionalismo y el etnicismo en todo el mundo acentúa la distancia entre el Estado y la nación, las fronteras geográficas, y la sensación de compartir un proyecto en común crucial para la construcción nacional. Y tal como lo atestiguan los antiguos escritos de Israel, el problema no es reciente. La pregunta sobre qué constituye la identidad israelita es fundamental para los libros post-exilio, donde las actitudes exclusivistas-aislacionistas y las inclusivas están claramente contrapuestas. Dado este trasfondo, el artículo investiga la relación entre la construcción de la identidad y el desarrollo de la nación a partir de una lectura intercultural de Isaías 55-66. Además, examina la importancia de esta unidad literaria para la sociedad ghanesa contemporánea, donde las divisiones étnicas parecen comprometer la construcción y el desarrollo de la nación. El texto desafía a los cristianos ghaneses a usar un lenguaje de inclusión; a reconocer al ‘otro’ como un mensaje concreto de Dios; a ir más allá de los atributos accidentales tales como etnias, género o raza para descubrir la imagen y semejanza de Dios reflejada en el semblante de él o ella. | ||
