Injustice of Violence

In chapter 7 of Kingdom Ethics, the authors make a strong case that Jesus’ understanding of justice flows directly from the vision of a just society that the later prophets articulated, focusing particularly on the Book of Isaiah. They go on to identify several kinds of injustice that are prominent in biblical teaching about how we ought to live with one another.

Select one of these biblical themes and write a post of about 150 words in which you point out key aspects of the biblical teaching and tell about an experience in which you saw people of faith confront this kind of injustice in our world.
