Orphans in the Bible: Deuteronomy 24:17-22
Throughout the Bible, God's people are exhorted to care for the outcasts and rejected, and orphans certainly fit that description in the Biblical world. Here, the Israelites are commanded to make sure that justice is available even to the fatherless and foreigners.

Justice in the Bible: Exodus 23:1-8
This passage from Exodus emphasizes the twin aspects of justice and mercy. As we can see here, God's law in the Old Testament wasn't just about keeping people from sin. It asked people to actively work to create a just and merciful society, helping those in need and refraining from corruption and dishonesty.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries, Inc. - How to Get Justice When You've Been Hurt - #9177 | Radio Program | A Life That Matters

This one was the largest mass shooting in U. S. history—Virginia Tech, remember, 32 people killed. One was 19-year-old Mary Read, and on the day of her funeral, her father found her little red notebook, and he read her final entry at the funeral. She said, “When a deep injury is done us, we never recover until we forgive.”

The Bible and Government - Faith Facts

Why can't I live my life as an agnostic? - Faith Facts
