[[Palestinian]] liberation theology is an expression of [[Political theology in the Middle East|political theology]] and a [[inculturation|contextual theology]] that represents an attempt by a number of independently working [[Palestinian Christian]] theologians from various denominations—mostly [[Protestant]] mainline churches—to articulate the gospel message in such a way as to make that liberating gospel relevant to the perceived needs of their Indigenous flocks. As a rule, this articulation involves a theological underpinning of Palestinian resistance to Israel as well as Palestinian national aspirations, and an intense valorization of Palestinian ethnic and cultural identity as guarantors of a truer grasp of the gospel by virtue of the fact that they are inhabitants of the land of Jesus and the [[Bible]]. The principal figure in Palestinian liberation theology is the [[Anglican]] cleric [[Naim Ateek]], founder of the [[Sabeel Ecumenical Liberation Theology Center]] in [[Jerusalem]].<ref>{{cite book|last1=Ateek|first1=Naim|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=QubYAAAAMAAJ|title=Justice, and Only Justice: A Palestinian Theology of Liberation|publisher=Orbis|year=1989|isbn=9780883445402|editor-last=Radford Reuther|editor-first=Rosemary|edition=3|location=The University of Michigan|access-date=April 10, 2021|archive-date=June 14, 2022|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220614165240/https://www.google.com/books/edition/Justice_and_Only_Justice/QubYAAAAMAAJ?hl=en&gbpv=0|url-status=live}}</ref>
