Thematic Bible: To be treated with justice


Thematic Bible





And if a stranger sojourn with thee in your land, ye shall not do him wrong. The stranger that sojourneth with you shall be unto you as the home-born among you, and thou shalt love him as thyself; for ye were sojourners in the land of Egypt: I am Jehovah your God.

And I charged your judges at that time, saying, Hear the causes between your brethren, and judge righteously between a man and his brother, and the sojourner that is with him. Verse ConceptsCourtsJudgesMagistratesJudging RightlyForeigners Included In The Law
