Mercy is like the ambulance at the bottom of a cliff, ready to help those who fall. Justice builds a fence at the top of the cliff to protect them from falling in the first place (Deuteronomy 22:8) Justice (Hebrew - tsadaq, often translated righteousness) in the prophets refer to fair treatment and active equity for all. It is quite literally making things right. It is a shame and a sign of Ill spiritual health when a society reduces the word justice into a simple synonym for punishment. - Brad Jersak Can You Hear Me
