“John Markey’s brilliant reflection, Moses in Pharaoh’s House, makes an enormous contribution to the existing literature on the preferential option for the poor and reminds us of the universal call to liberation.  .  .  .  Markey identifies the walls that confine the human spirit and breaks down the dualisms between ‘us’ and ‘them.’ .  .  .  Offering a Gospel-based vision of authentic freedom and human solidarity, he helps us see that conversion is not just about individual change but also about social and communal transformation. As he reminds us that we cannot understand the mystery of our lives independently of the mystery of God, he also helps us see that we cannot understand who we are independently of our connection to one another, especially our neighbor in need.”
