Dr. John MuhlfeldFebruary 1, 2015Passage: Exodus 21:12-36
At first glance, the list of crimes and punishments in Exodus 21 scarcely seem applicable to our lives. Upon further examination, however, they reveal the heart of a God who desires justice and peace among His people that is consistent, proportional, contextual, and merciful. Such justice is made possible only through the One who faced the ultimate punishment we deserved so that we might experience His infinite grace.
