Conquest or Leaven: Reflections of a Catholic Priest in Palestine/Israel

For the first time in English, here are key essays by an eyewitness to the realities of faith in one of the world's most conflict-torn regions. Writing from Jerusalem, David M. Neuhaus, an Israeli Jesuit priest, brings his unique experiences to bear, weaving together theology, history, and political analysis with care and compassion. Conquest or Leaven challenges Christians and all people of goodwill to grapple with questions of violence and nonviolence, peoplehood and land, partition and dialogue, history and community, society and marginalization.
