The Word of God teaches us the importance of justice and
protection of the innocents. In this passage, we see how a woman, by her courage, seeks to defend her husband in the face of injustice. This also reminds us of the teaching of
Exodus 23: 2 , which urges us not to follow the crowd to do the evil, and from
Matthew 5: 9 , who proclaims that the peace craftsmen will be called the son of God. May our faith guide us to act with love and integrity in all our actions.
