We Are All God's Children
by Joseph Haddad
A new look at the oldest of books - the Hebrew Bible - uncovers the unifying thread among all peoples.
The Hebrew Bible is an exquisite work. For believers of all faiths, as well as for the skeptic, the Bible's primary message is critically important for today. This message - though simple - is sublime: It is that we are all mutually interdependent, that we are all bid to a universal set of values, and we are all beloved by our Creator - for "we are all God's children."
A mature understanding of this message also provides hope of reconciliation for the international community in today's fractured and polarized world. The Hebrew Bible teaches Universalism ("Noahism") for the gentile and Judaism for the Jew - two complementary social systems. As societies develop, the ideal of "proactive fellowship" that is implicit in the single positive precept for gentiles - "to establish a just legal system" - provides direction for mankind's continued progress.
