Walter Brueggemann on Stillness as Resistance - Progressive (Psalm 46:10)
Source: Walter Brueggemann47 words
"'Be still' is addressed to the nations—stop your warring, cease your violence, quit your empire-building. This is prophetic command to powers, not just private meditation. God will be exalted; human striving will fail. Stillness is resistance to the myth of control." — Walter Brueggemann.
