"An eye for an eye" — is that ancient cruelty, or something else entirely? Dr. Carmen Imes walks through the surprising heart of Old Testament law: restraint on vengeance, responsibility for your neighbor, refuge for the accused. What looks harsh at first is actually God building guardrails to protect the vulnerable. A fuller picture of God's justice, with Glenn Packiam.
