To Phrase a Prayer for Peace wrestles with what is holy, with the world as we humans have constructed it, with war and violence, with love and friendship, with communication between people (and nations) who may not agree. Donna Spruijt-Metz writes about being comfortable while others are dying-expressing the felt fears of a Jew and the need for a Jewish homeland while holding a profound empathy for Palestinians who also need a homeland. She grapples with scripture and the Psalms, inviting the reader to wish for peace with her and to explore all the complexities that peace entails-between nations, between religions, within families, and among friends.
