not because there are no alternatives, but because Israel will not concede that the conversation of prayer belongs wholly to Yahweh or happens wholly on Yahweh’s terms. Israel has a stake in the conversation and is ‘part owner’ of the process of prayer. Israel will not be driven from the conversation, even by Yahweh’s lack of response, and will not yield its claim to the silent sovereignty of Yahweh. Israel determinedly and self-assuredly knows that this prayer is the meeting ground where life occurs and will wait there for a response from Yahweh, if need be, ‘until hell freezes over’. (Brueggemann 1995: 56–7)
