In this study, Wu explores how the concepts honor, shame, and guilt function in the book of Ezekiel, as well as in the wider contexts of their general use in anthropological or social-scientific approaches to biblical studies. He frames Ezekiel’s key terms for honor (kabod), shame (bosh ), and guilt ('awah) within an analysis of a broad perspective on these terms in the body of the Old Testament as a way of forming the “concept spheres” within which the specific instances of each term in Ezekiel sit. Wu gleans insight from the dominant contemporary definitions of honor, shame, and guilt in the fields of psychology and anthropology and their application to biblical studies, and he reflects on how this broader context informs and is informed by his analysis of Ezekiel. The study concludes by drawing together the implications and contribution of the analysis of Ezekiel and applying them to the development of social-scientific models for the future.

But things are different now. My friends have worked together to give me a new start. My slate wiped clean. No debt. Enough money in the bank to put me back in the home building business. A new home. A new wife. A new family. A new faith.In fact, everything around me is new. But I'm still me. And that's the problem. What will happen when I have to go out and face real life again?Well . . . that's what this story is about.It's also about Jen. My wife. The woman is God's gift to mankind. She loves me. Me! Go figure. She's by my side-loving me, challenging me, charming me. But let's not forget that she has MS; how are we gonna deal with that?Then there's Jim and Susan Swartzkopt. They're still here. But now they're trying to change the paradigm of all our lives. They tell me they're finally going to take the war to those scumbags from the UAI. How exactly are they gonna do that? Their entire arsenal wouldn't arm a respectable cub scout troop. And what's this talk of trying to save their enemies?From the roof of Mrs. Wilson's house, which collapsed just as Vanna turned the T; to the house of torment in Atlanta, where humanity's shame is on display; to the place of ultimate sacrifice, where life is freely poured out; to the seat of splendor, the wellspring of all human desire-that's where it all happens, our story of dying and living.

Praise for Sun Yung Shin: Finalist for the Believer Poetry Award "[her] work reads like redactions, offering fragments to be explored, investigated and interrogated, making her reader equal partner in the creation of meaning."—Star Tribune Sun Yung Shin moves ideas—of identity (Korean, American, adoptee, mother, Catholic, Buddhist) and interest (mythology, science fiction, Sophocles)— around like building blocks, forming and reforming new constructions of what it means to be at home. What is a cyborg but a hybrid creature of excess? A thing that exceeds the sum of its parts. A thing that has extended its powers, enhanced, even superpowered.
