Ep. 48 - Justice and the Prophets with Dr. Danny Carroll

Join us as Dr. Danny Carroll joins the podcast to discuss justice in the prophets. You’ll see how these texts and the actions of the prophets connect both to the law before them, and to the ministry of Christ after them. You’ll also learn why the law and worship of God were so closely connected for God’s people in Israel, and how that understanding impacts us today.00:00 - Introduction02:23 - Patreon02:55 - Justice in the Old Testament07:58 - Connecting the law and the character of God15:13 - Understanding idolatry25:38 - The role of the prophets32:17 - Understanding God’s judgment40:52 - How Jesus reflects the prophets51:08 - How do we recognize an unjust system we’re in?Find us online:Website - https://www.biblicaljusticeresources.com/ Instagram - @biblicaljusticeresourcesYouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@biblicaljusticeresources Patreon - patreon.com/BiblicalJusticeResources Links:The Bible and Social Justice - https://wipfandstock.com/9781498238076/the-bible-and-social-justice/ When Breath Becomes Air - https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/258507/when-breath-becomes-air-by-paul-kalanithi/ Related episodes:Migration Stories and the Bible - https://www.biblicaljusticeresources.com/podcast-archive/2025/9/2/ep-14-migration-stories-and-the-bible-with-dr-danny-carroll Dennis Edwards - The Power of a Robust Gospel - https://www.biblicaljusticeresources.com/podcast-archive/2025/11/18/ep-22-the-power-of-a-robust-gospel-with-rev-dr-dennis-r-edwards Justice in the Old and New Testaments - https://www.biblicaljusticeresources.com/podcast-archive/2026/1/27/ep-32-justice-in-the-old-and-new-testaments-with-dr-patty-pell
