GOD’S TOTALLY WOKE TAKE ON POVERTY God repeatedly commands His people to care for the poor, the oppressed, and the marginalized. The Hebrew prophets frequently spoke out against injustice and called for social and economic reforms to address the plight of the poor. Isaiah 1:17 says, “Learn to do right; seek justice. Defend the oppressed. Take up the cause of the fatherless; plead the case of the widow.”
