Deuteronomy 27:19
“‘Cursed be he who topples the foreigner’s, fatherless’, or widow’s rights.’ All the people shall say, ‘Amen.’”
This verse is part of a series of curses and blessings laid out by Moses to the Israelites before they enter the promised land. It emphasizes the importance of upholding justice and protecting the most vulnerable members of society as a fundamental aspect of their covenant with God.
What does it mean to ensure justice for those made vulnerable by changes we create or experience?
