Abstract

The story of Israel’s journey in the Book of Ezra provides a description of how exclusivism and radicalism were able to grow among the group of Israelites returning from exile with Ezra. By paying attention to the social and political dynamics underlying the writing of this book, the reader can suss out how the situation of historical events provoked concerns related to identity within Ezra’s own cohort, eventually changing them to become an exclusivist and radicalized group. This article presents an excavation of the social and political context for the Book of Ezra, including a critique concerning the point of view of its author. The purpose of such an excavation is to investigate how exclusivism and radicalism emerged in the post-exilic period. Through this critical reading, readers, especially Indonesian Christians, can see how the seeds of exclusivism and radicalism grew in this given group of people, as well as how to prevent these seeds from causing conflict in order to preserve the unity in diversity of Indonesia [cf. Bhinneka Tunggal Ika].

Abstract

Discrimination towards the non-heteronormative people, including in the mosques and churches, continues to happen. Along with that, particularly in Indonesia, the movements which fight for equality start to have new attention on faith and sexuality. This new wave shows that despite of the struggle related to gender and sexuality faced by our non-heteronormative fellows, there remains the need to defend their faith. The rejection, which is often based on religious values, does not fade their longing to be connected with God. In fact, our non-heteronormative fellows still strive to reach out to God through spiritual spaces outside the churches and refuse to believe the saying that they are “cursed” by God. Their faith does not only become the evidence of their yearning to devote, but also of God’s desire to embrace all creations in the communion with Him. Behind the struggle to cross the borders of patriarchal doctrines and discriminative interpretation of the Bible, there is a spirituality which recognize God’s presence and His involvement in the life of creation. This article tries to give an attention to the ideas which happen to be parts of non-heteronormative people and Beguine spirituality, as the latter was the pioneer of early emancipation movement, and then to construct a theological reflection which represents their spirituality. There is a hope that this article will contributes to the movements against the discrimination towards our non-heteronormative fellows, and that those movements will be regarded as an embodiment of our longing towards God and at the same time, the manifestation of the Triune God’s love which always moves to embrace all creations.
