Description
Summary:The idea of this article is to analyse the third Song of YHWH's Servant in Isaiah as a memory of enslavement and liberation in the Babylonian exile. It emphasises the figure of the Servant or Slave presented in Is 50.4-9. For the study I use the historical-critical method and hermeneutics to show the parallels between the Servant described in the passage and the pain and suffering experienced by black women in colonial Brazil, stressing the enslavement and the desire for liberation in both cases.
