AB - This study examines the origins of identity within the Persian-period exile-return community through the concept of the “People Who Remained” in the book of Ezekiel. The goal is to understand the transformation of Israel/Judah’s identity from the time of Jehoiachin’s exile in 597 BCE. To explore the identity discourse in Ezekiel, the research draws on and compares modern social-scientific approaches, particularly the works of Rom-Shiloni, Glissmann, and Smith-Christopher. Additionally, it considers how these strategies of identity transformation function from the perspective of contemporary readers living in an era of hyperconnectivity. This study explains the traditional biblical views on land, exile, and restoration that underlie the concept of the People Who Remained, framing them within Deuteronomic thought. It also investigates how Ezekiel’s remnant ideology subverts and innovatively reinterprets these traditions. By doing so, the research moves beyond a monolithic understanding of Israel/Judah’s identity, tracing the development of a dual identity characterized by both exclusivity and inclusivity. It highlights how the Israelite/Judahite community responded to the existential and historical challenges of exile.
