Abstract:
Abstract Migration and refugee displacement are some of the most pressing issues facing the contemporary Middle East. Regional church leaders have cautioned against Christian emigration from ancient Middle Eastern churches to countries outside the Middle East; even Christian refugees who have already been displaced internally within the region are often discouraged from leaving. This article surveys some of the public statements that discourage Middle Eastern Christians from leaving the region, as presented from various denominational perspectives. Building on fieldwork conducted in Amman, Jordan, in 2018 and 2019, the article then argues that the attempts by Arab Anglican leaders in Jordan to dissuade church members from emigrating are based on a particular self-understanding of Middle Eastern Christianity that emphasizes an active, continuing Christian presence within the Middle East, as well as practices of unity among different Christian communities and longstanding coexistence with Muslim neighbors.

Abstract:
Scholarship on Christians in the Middle East has paid little attention to the role the Christian laity has played in defining and maintaining Christian identity and community boundaries. The so-called Orthodox issue (al-qaḍya al-urthudhuksiyya in Arabic) enhances our understanding of this role. It is an ongoing conflict within the Greek Orthodox Patriarchate of Jerusalem between the church leadership of Greek extraction and the Arab – usually lower-ranking – clergy and laity. This article uses a case-study approach to a series of protests in Jordan in 2014 against a decision by the Patriarchate to relocate a local reform-minded cleric. Using ethnographic, historical and philological methods, I argue that through their engagement in this struggle, Greek Orthodox Jordanians assert their identity as Christians, as Arabs and as loyal Jordanians. This offers a perspective into the complex interplay between church—community relations, the issue of pastoral care, and this community's identity.

Abstract:
Purpose The purpose of this research paper is to investigate the role of individual and cultural differences, specifically religious motivation and attitudes toward nepotism, in the selection of conflict management styles (obliging, avoiding, forcing, integrating and compromising), in the Middle-Eastern context. Design/methodology/approach The research surveyed a sample of 588 individuals (both Muslims and Christians), representative of the Jordanian population. Data were analyzed through multiple ANOVAs and multiple regressions. Findings Results suggest that both religious motivation and attitude toward nepotism affect the choice of conflict management styles, while demographic variables, such as age and gender, do not seem to have an effect. Originality/value This paper constitutes one of the first attempts to investigate the conflict management style preferences of a Middle-Eastern society and the role of two important cultural variables, namely, religious motivation and attitudes toward nepotism, which have not been previously investigated by conflict management research.

AbstractThe article begins with a brief review of the history of the diocese of Jerusalem. By interviewing eight members of the diocesan clergy in Jordan, the researcher desires to explore how the concepts in the title are related to each other within the Jordanian context. Is there a unique identity of Jordanian Anglicans? What is the desirability and/or feasibility of revising the prayer book? Given the declining demographics of Christians in the region, what avenues are open to these ministers to sustain their congregations? Specific care is paid to the topic of incorporating Muslim converts into existing congregations. Also included are some theological reflections on the meaning of liturgy within the Jordanian context and the diocesan policies for the formation of future priests, which have important implications for the future of the diocese.

Abstract:
AbstractThis article will discuss Christian rights in the Middle East as a minority. With their number not more than 10% of the total population of the Middle East. The little existence of Christianity means nothing. Historically, Christianity in the Middle East emerged several centuries before Islam was born. Therefore, they have an emotional connection and bond with this region. On the other hand, Jesus and His followers first settled in the region of Nazareth, which is currently located in the Middle East. Through Albert Hourani's glasses, the author tries to photograph the lives of Christians in the Middle East. One of the portraits taken is the number of churches that are one of the real symbols of the existence and recognition of minority rights in the Middle East. In this discussion, the churches that became the object were churches in Jerusalem, Syria, Egypt, Lebanon, Iraq, Turkey, and Jordan who were members of the Middle East Council of Churches (MECC). This study found that Christians in the Middle East still have rights as a minority. The ups and downs faced by Christians in the Middle East did not dampen the enthusiasm and the number of Christians survived under the domination of Islam.Keywords: Christian, Middle East, Minority Right, Church, Social Status.AbstrakArtikel ini akan membahas tentang hak-hak Kristen di Timur Tengah selaku minoritas. Dengan jumlah mereka yang tidak sampai 10% dari keseluruhan penduduk Timur Tengah. Eksistensi Kristen yang sedikit tidak berarti tidak ada. Secara historis, Kristen di Timur Tengah muncul beberapa abad sebelum Islam lahir. Karenanya, mereka memiliki hubungan dan ikatan emosional dengan kawasan ini. Di sisi lain, Yesus dan para pengikutNya yang pertama bermukim di kawasan Nazaret, yang saat ini terletak di Timur Tengah. Melalui kacamata Albert Hourani, penulis mencoba memotret kehidupan umat Kristen di Timur Tengah. Salah satu potret yang diambil adalah jumlah Gereja yang menjadi salah satu simbol nyata keberadaan dan pengakuan hak-hak minoritas di Timur Tengah. Dalam pembahasan ini, gereja-gereja yang menjadi objek adalah gereja-gereja di Yerussalem, Syria, Mesir, Lebanon, Iraq, Turki, dan Yordania yang tergabung dalam Middle East Council of Churches (MECC). Penelitian ini menemukan bahwa Umat Kristen di Timur Tengah masih memiliki hak sebagai minoritas. Pasang surut gelombang yang dihadapi umat Kristen di Timur Tengah tidak menyurutkan semangat dan jumlah umat Kristen bertahan di bawah dominasi agama Islam.Kata Kunci: Kristen, Timur Tengah, Hak Minoritas, Gereja, Status Sosial

Abstract:
What is a photisterion? Translators usually render the Greek word phōtistērion (site of illumination) as ‘baptistery’ (site of immersion in water). This article reopens the study of phōtistēria, arguing that being ‘immersed’ or ‘illuminated’ evokes different senses of the concomitant meaning of the sites and rites of initiation. It situates late ancient phōtistēria from epigraphic and literary sources in their theological and liturgical contexts. The evidence from Galilee, Syria, Jordan and Cyprus corroborates the idea that many Christians of late antiquity preferred ‘illumination’ to express the composite rite of initiation in a phōtistērion, within which ‘baptism’ was one part.

Abstract:
The great temple of Artemis at Gerasa (Jerash) in Jordan is one of the finest expressions of Greco-Roman culture in the Near East. Built in the second century, it includes a church that was erected on top of another building. This chapter explores the combination of Greek and Hebrew or Aramaic that characterised the mosaic floors of synagogues of the period from Palestine, across the Jordan to the west, where the roles of the two languages tend to be reversed: Hebrew or Aramaic was used for the strictly religious components while Greek was used for the names of benefactors. More specifically, it considers the combination — or alternation — of co-existence and hostility between Christians and Jews. After providing a background on the Roman Near East, the chapter analyses the language that Jews possibly used in daily life, and whether pagans of the Roman Near East spoke Aramaic. It then examines documentary evidence that offers insights into Greek culture in the Near East in its local context before concluding with a discussion of Greek literary culture in the region.

Abstract:
This chapter presents accomplishments of southern white ministers who witnessed for racial justice before and after the rise of black nationalism. Clarence Jordan”s cooperative interracial farm in Americus, Georgia, could have failed because of the bombing of its roadside stand and refusal of businesses to supply its needs, if not for the generosity of church groups and the success of Jordan’s writing and oratory. The South Carolina Christian Action Council established by Howard McClain as an interracial, interdenominational ministerial association dedicated to civil rights still exists. W. W. Finlator spoke from the pulpit of Pullen Memorial Baptist Church in Raleigh, North Carolina, for school desegregation, civil rights demonstrations, and equality for African Americans until his forced retirement after he sent a provocative telegram to President Carter. The tormenting experiences of Joseph Sanderson, David Moose, and Travis Frank in Eastern Arkansas did not discourage them from continuing to help African Americans.
