Beginning in the 8th century BCE and continuing through the Maccabean crisis in the 2nd, ancient Israel and Judah were threatened or manifestly dominated by a series of foreign empires. This study analyzes the theological responses to these experiences of imperial domination in the Hebrew Bible, especially as they came to expression in discourse about the relationship between YHWH and the figure of the Gentile king. This relationship provided a crucial-even necessary-locus for thinking theologically about empire. For if the unrivaled political sovereignty of the Gentile king was not to dislodge YHWH from his position of ultimate supremacy, this sovereignty somehow had to be assimilated into a Yahwistic theological framework. The key texts analyzed in this study do just this, establishing sets of relations between YHWH and the Gentile king that provide models for making sense of Gentile empire theologically. In order to understand the content and character of these models, this study pursues three central research questions: (1) How did key biblical texts configure the relationship between YHWH and the Gentile king at pivotal junctures in the history of Judah? (2) How did these configurations change over time and in response to different political circumstances and ideological challenges? And (3) how did the responsive nature of this discourse influence the historical development and presentation of beliefs about YHWH? In answering these questions, the study identifies common discursive strategies for making theological sense of Gentile imperialism, including the assimilation of the activities and power of the Gentile king within an exclusively Yahwistic framework by the contestation of effective agency and the construction of hierarchies of relative sovereignty, which over time contributed to the development of monotheistic discourse in ancient Judah and ideas about the kingdom of God in early Jewish eschatology. The analyses also demonstrate how the discursive constructions of reality emerging from both sides of the imperial encounter interacted with one another, producing what postcolonial theorists describe as "hybrid" discourses. The study thus shows how the biblical presentation of YHWH was, by necessity, influenced by the imperial encounter through the process of response.
