How can we say that God sits on the throne of High Justice when our judges, who are appointed on earth to reflect that justice, do not care to do so (3:16)? How can He be up there when they are down here? Problems in the judiciary did not begin with our liberal justices in this century; Solomon knew of many who twisted words behind the bench. Now the wickedness of our judges provides material for this common slander against the truth. However, Solomon hastens to add that God will put it all to rights in the final judgment (3:17).
