Abstract
Within Liberation Hermeneutics, Mk 12:1-12 is a problematic text, from a theological and socioeconomical point of view. An analysis of the parable from the perspective of several land conflicts in Palestine, on the first century, questions the traditional allegorical reading of this text, and allows it to speak as a critique of the economic abuses against the peasantry. Using the Gospel of Thomas, this research will suggest that to imagine Jesus’s God as a powerful landowner is inadequate and unthinkable among some Christian movements of the half of the first century.
