In these days of worldwide social unrest and growing social awareness among Christians, it ii imperative that we ask ourselves what the Word of God has to say on social justice. With this question in mind the author read through the whole Bible in search for the texts which deal with this-reality. The outcome was a series of about one hundred and fifty texts.
This means that we can hardly read any substantial portion of the Bible without in one way or another being confronted with the question of social justice. The author does not attempt to deal with all these texts. But he intends to give the reader a good sampling of these texts and thus to contribute to a growing awareness pf the rich biblical message on social justice.
