Description

The study this quarter focuses on justice as presented in Scriptures from the prophets and in the reading for Easter Sunday, which is taken from First Corinthians. The prophets communicated God’s will to the people. They called for repentance and justice.

UNIT 1 • God Requires Justice

This is a five-lesson study from four of the minor prophets. The prophets issue God’s call for justice in the conduct of human affairs. Amos, Habakkuk, Micah, and Malachi convey that the laws of God require justice for the poor and the oppressed. The last two lessons from Micah and Malachi are a study of the responsibilities of leaders for practicing justice.

UNIT 2 • God Promises a Just Kingdom

The lessons for Palm Sunday and Easter examine the promised Messiah as the defender of justice. In Lesson 8, Esther’s triumph is reviewed as demonstrating the prevailing of God’s justice. For children, the unit concludes with the narrative from Solomon as an example of God’s justice while adults study the Lord’s proclamation of the redeemed nation where justice and righteousness are restored.

UNIT 3 • Called to God’s Work of Justice

This unit has five lessons that explore ways that people are called to participate in God’s work of justice. Zephaniah presents both a judgment against the wickedness and injustice of Jerusalem and a vision of restoration. Zechariah calls for a return to God’s ways of justice. In Jeremiah, God’s rigorous standards for justice are defined and God’s people are given a choice either to repent injustices by executing justice or to face destruction. Hosea uses early history to call the people to love and justice.
