'''This page is just being created in the middle of the Psalms studies.'''

'''For a list of pages related to this general topic, see: [[Judgment]].'''

*See also: [[Injustice]].

*See also: [[Justice and Mercy]].

Justice is related to purity. God ''must'' judge, in order to purify what humans have corrupted. Evil ''must'' be cast out of his presence, and righteous ''must'' be maintained. Anything less is to ''endorse'' impurity, corruption, wickedness, and even death itself.

:Because of this, judgment and justice are expressions of ''love''. To ''not'' have judgment and justice is to ''not'' have love.

==Scripture Pages that Link to Here==

'''[[Psalm 33:1-22]]'''
:Faithfulness, righteousness and justice are described as expressions of God's love.

:Note that the concepts love and justice go together.

'''[[Psalm 72:1-20]]'''
:The goal of a righteous king: justice and righteousness. The Davidic kings of the past never fully met this goal (though some did better than others). Jesus Christ, the ''future'' Davidic king, will meet this goal ''fully''.

:Many references to justice can be found in this psalm.

'''[[Psalm 146:1-10]]'''

'''[[Psalm 147:1-20]]'''
:Psa 147:6 Yahweh upholds the humble. He brings the wicked down to the ground.

:God's nature ''defines'' justice.

'''[[Isaiah 1:11-17]]'''
:Isa 1:17 Learn to do well. Seek justice. Relieve the oppressed. Judge the fatherless. Plead for the widow."

:Because they ''weren't'' doing these things, God was opposed to their [[Religious Activities|religious activities]].

'''[[Micah 6:6-8]]'''
: Mic 6:8 He has shown you, O man, what is good. What does Yahweh require of you, but to act justly, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God?

'''[[Isaiah 32:9-20]]'''
:When the Spirit comes, his presence will affect the environment, ''but the Spirit will also affect moral values and conduct''. Justice and righteousness will be present.
