In The Way of Abundance, economist and minister Edith Rasell examines Old and New Testament teachings on economic justice in the context of the ancient economic systems and circumstances they addressed... Across the vast expanse of time and economic transition, the Bible called for a just economy. And its vision of economic justice can be a vision for justice seekers today. The book concludes with specific public policy proposals and personal practices that would move contemporary society closer to the Bible's economic vision.</abstract> <note type="statement of responsibility">Edith Rasell</note> <subject> <topic>Economics in the Bible</topic> </subject> <subject> <topic>Social ethics</topic> </subject> <subject> <topic>Christianity and justice</topic> </subject> <classification authority="ddc">261.8</classification> <classification authority="ddc">R224-E21</classification> <identifier type="isbn">9781506469829</identifier> <identifier type="uri">https://data.thuviencodoc.org/books/13656/ab.jpg</identifier> <location> <url displayLabel="Cover Image">https://data.thuviencodoc.org/books/13656/ab.jpg</url> </location> <recordInfo> <recordCreationDate encoding="marc">2024-0</recordCreationDate> <recordChangeDate encoding="iso8601">20260119071257.0</recordChangeDate> </recordInfo> </mods>
