Abstract
"Es común pensar en los exiliados, pero difícilmente pensamos en las exiliadas. Sin embargo, con certeza las había. Las mujeres exiliadas son saqueo, son despojo, son botín. Hacen parte de lo que debe ser repartido entre los soldados. ¿Y los hijos...? No son ni babilonios ni judíos. Son bastardos para unos, impuros para los otros. ¿Cuál es su genealogía? ¡Bastardos! ¡Naciones! Es de este grupo de excluidos y excluidas que surge la buena noticia, surge una teología nunca pensada de esta manera. Lo nuevo pasa por la boca de la mujer violentada y despreciada. Una nueva forma de pensar la naturaleza: amiga, solidaria, desmitizada, casa de la vida de la gente. Se experimenta también una nueva divinidad: creadora, llena de ternura, fuerte, amiga y redentora. Es una divinidad única, aunque “completa”, suma de todo lo que sea elemento de vida, de seguridad, de esperanza para los pobres. Es una divinidad de las naciones. Es poderosa porque es capaz de hacer que el esclavo, el excluido, la víctima de la violencia, se haga el mediador de la nueva alianza" "We often think of exiled persons, but seldom of exiled women. But surely there were exiled women! Exiled women are the spoils, the booty, the pickings. They are part of what the soldiers divy up among themselves. The children...? They are neither Babylonians nor Judahites. To some they are bastards; to others, impure. What is their genealogy? Bastards! The Nations! And it is from this group of excluded men and women that the good news arises, a theologie that had never been thought through in this manner. What is new comes from the mouth of a woman who has been violated and humiliated. A new way to think about nature: a friend, an ally, demythologized, a home where people live. A new divinity is also experienced: creator, full of tenderness, strong, friend and redeemer. This is a single but ‘complete’ divinity, the summation of every thing of evey kind that serves as an element of live, of security, of hope for the poor. This is a divinity of the nations. She is powerful because she is able to make the slave, the excluded person, the victim of violence into the mediator of the new covenant"
