Joshua teaches the importance of following God’s command through the journey of the Israelites as the chosen people, whereby he uses the Promised Land not as a reward but as a consequence of one’s actions, as a vessel of judgement.

Q

Explain the ethical reflections of latter prophets?

A

a. Ethics in Times of Exile and Restoration (e.g., Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel): The Latter Prophets consist of major prophets who addressed ethical challenges during the times of exile and restoration. Their messages mainly focused on repentance, ethical living, and the hope of restoration. Jeremiah’s message, in particular, encouraged people to seek the welfare of the city where they were in exile (Jeremiah 29:7), which reflects the call for ethical engagement even in challenging times.
b. Social Justice and Compassion (e.g., Amos, Micah): The Minor Prophets may be shorter in length, but their messages are still impactful. Amos speaks out against social injustice, particularly the mistreatment of the poor, and encourages ethical living. Micah’s well-known call to “do justice, love mercy, and walk humbly with your God” (Micah 6:8) encompasses a timeless ethical message.
