Sex, Worship, and Covenant — Part IV: When Humanity Becomes Currency

The Queen Bathsheba examines the commodification of human life across the biblical narrative, tracing practices from child sacrifice and sexualized religious economies in the Old Testament to slavery, exposure, and structural exploitation in the Greco-Roman world. The episode contrasts a covenant worldview that affirms human dignity with systems that treat people as instruments of power, ritual, or economic value. While the material is sobering, the central message points to God’s opposition to exploitation and the call to repentance, justice, and restoration as revealed in Scripture and the ministry of Yeshua.
