Menyuarakan Iman di Tengah Penindasan: Analisis Naratif Tematik Kisah Gadis Tawanan dari 2 Raja-Raja 5:1-5
Abstract
This captive girl demonstrated an active faith in spite of her oppression. Her testimony became the catalyst for Naaman's healing and his encounter with the God of Israel. This study aims to explore the narrative and thematic dynamics of the story, especially in relation to the themes of witness, God's providence, and inclusiveness in the plan of salvation. This study uses narrative and thematic analysis methods to uncover the theological messages contained in the actions and words of the captive girl. Therefore, four important values emerge from this research: first, the power of forgiveness; second, being trustworthy; third, having mercy; and fourth, trusting God. This research enriches biblical theology's understanding of the role of the "small and powerless" in the fulfillment of God's plan, affirms that hope and salvation can be present in the context of suffering, and makes it relevant to the dialogue of theologies of mission and social justice.
Abstrak
Gadis tawanan ini memperlihatkan iman yang aktif meskipun berada dalam situasi penindasan. Kesaksiannya menjadi katalis untuk penyembuhan Naaman dan perjumpaannya dengan Allah Israel. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengeksplorasi dinamika naratif dan tematik dari kisah tersebut, khususnya terkait tema kesaksian, providensi Allah, dan inklusivitas dalam rencana keselamatan. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode analisis naratif dan tematik untuk mengungkap pesan teologis yang terkandung dalam tindakan dan perkataan gadis tawanan itu. Oleh sebab itu ada empat nilai penting yang didapat dari penelitian ini, yakni: pertama, kuasa pengampunan; kedua, bisa dipercaya; ketiga, memiliki belas kasihan; dan keempat, mempercayai Tuhan. Riset ini memperkaya pemahaman teologi biblika tentang peran "yang kecil dan tak berdaya" dalam melaksanakan rencana Allah, menegaskan bahwa harapan dan keselamatan dapat hadir dalam konteks penderitaan, sehingga relevan dalam dialog teologi misi dan keadilan sosial.
