Israel’s long pilgrimage out of domination began at the Exodus from Egypt and was refined by the prophets. Then the prophetic vision of a domain freed from the ravages of war—of swords beaten into plowshares—reached its greatest clarity in Jesus. He gave it profound programmatic shape in his teaching of nonviolence. In his Beatitudes, in his extraordinary concern for the outcasts and marginalized, in his wholly unconventional treatment of women, in his love of children, in his rejection of the belief that high-ranking men are the favorites of God, in his subversive proclamation of a new order in which domination will give way to compassion and communion, Jesus brought to fruition the prophetic longing for the “kingdom of God”—an expression we might paraphrase as “God’s domination-free order.”
