He has showed you what is good, and what does YHWH require of you?
To DO JUSTICE
LOVE MERCY
WALK HUMBLY WITH YOUR God.
So, what does justice look like? It's NOT asleep, unaware or detached; it's NOT guilt ridden.
It IS pulsating with the compassion (and sometimes the anger) of God's loving heart
It IS aware of human capabilities and limitations, and
It IS full of faith and the belief that GOD is capable of doing all this. Sorry, Rabbi Kushner, but God is not weak! Even while using His weak and imperfect servants,
He is able to deliver the poor, lift them up, and establish justice.
AND HE WILL!
Thanks to Garret Smith, whose thoughts I am summarizing here!
