Sinopsis

One characteristic we have come to expect of a deity is their concern for how humans treat one an other. But this was not the case in the ancient world! Most gods cared only about how they were treated, Fate determining what befell humans. Yet the God of Israel placed care for humans at the core of his law, especially care for the powerless by the powerful. In this episode we look at YHWH’s concern for the poor and his insistence that his people do the same.
