Considering the extent of social injustice in the world today, how can Christians combine their efforts with those of other concerned people to solve this problem? Social Justice in the Hebrew Bible offers an answer to this question by examining how Israel used the social justice thought of other Near Eastern peoples to face its own justice crises. It uses as its framework the Hebrew Bible's statements about this issue in its law codes, prophetic books, psalms, narrative works, and wisdom literature.

Malchow demonstrates that Israel did not originate the concept of social justice. Rather, it drew its resources for overcoming it from Near Eastern thought on the subject. By combining its own ideas of social justice with those of its neighbors, Israel's people fought injustice with what was new and what was old.

Israel's three methods of acceptance, adaptation, and transformation remain relevant to the changing conditions of life today. They are useful in our integrations of non-Christian thought with our own and continue to shape Israel's justice tradition.

Social injustice is an immense and world-wide problem. Social Justice in the Hebrew Bible stresses that in order for Christians to be ethically responsible and true to their tradition, they must join forces with other concerned people in the struggle against it.

Bruce V. Malchow, PhD, is professor of Hebrew Bible at the Sacred Heart School of Theology, Hales Corners, Wisconsin. He has published articles in numerous journals, including the Journal of Biblical Literature and Catholic Biblical Quarterly.

Seems to be indestructible
Color: Blue
Quality toy that seems to be indestructible to my aggressive chewer. The down side is that it's not his favorite toy because he seems to know he can't destroy it.

Durability
Color: Pink
My dog absolutely loves playing with this toy!! It is made of very thick plastic and I’m thinking she won’t be able to destroy this toy very easily!! She loves for you to throw it and play tug of war with. I’m very pleased with my purchase. She is a medium size dog and it works great for her.

Tough and fun toy
Color: Blue
This toy has outlived and exceeded expectations! Our dog loves it! He normally destroys any toy within a week or two. This is our second one but the first lasted eight months.
