Justice for the Poor?

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“While the Old Testament’s concern for justice is well-known, Houston brilliantly transcends general statements on the issue, deeply contextualizing the statements of the various Old Testament texts within their historical and literary settings. His thorough analysis undoubtedly provides the basis and model for generations of further study into the historical contexts of the biblical texts and pathways to application of their insights to modern settings.”
