A Biblical Perspective of Social Justice Issues
Paul J. Bucknell
A Biblical Perspective of Social Justice Issues: Part 1 (of 4) teaches and defends the wealth transfer from the Egyptians to the Israelites as an undeserved reward, a display of God’s favor, rather than reparations or repayment. Part 2 provides a fuller examination of reparations. People increasingly hijack Exodus 12:35-36 to support societal reparation, social justice, and Critical Race Theory.

“35 Now the sons of Israel had done according to the word of Moses, for they had requested from the Egyptians articles of silver and articles of gold, and clothing; 36 and the Lord had given the people favor in the sight of the Egyptians so that they let them have their request. Thus they plundered the Egyptians” (Exodus 12:35-36 NASB).
