This is an exhaustive and perceptive analysis of the use of 'mishpat' and 'sdq' in the Hebrew Bible and in particular the Eight-Century Prophets. The author focuses on the social critique of these prophets and the role of 'mishpat' and 'sdq' in this development. Further, the book offers an insightful exploration of chosen texts and provides a daring platform for contemporary society to discern the intrinsic connection between worship and social justice.
