About This Book
"In this work, which marked the arrival of a new era of Hispanic/Latino theology in the United States, Virgilio Elizondo described the "Galilee principle": "What human beings reject, God chooses as his very own." This principle is well understood by Mexican-Americans, for whom mestizaje - the mingling of ethnicity, race, and culture - is a distinctive feature of their identity.
In the person of Jesus, whose marginalized Galilean identity also marked him as a mestizo, the Mexican-American struggle for identity and new life becomes luminous." "Galilean Journey includes a new autobiographical introduction, as well as a concluding chapter describing the subsequent development of Hispanic/Latino theology in the United States."--BOOK JACKET.
