Procedures of the Court (Remastered)

Biblical court procedure was neither primitive nor informal—it was public, principled, and deeply theological. Trials were held at the city gates, open to all, and guided by written records, oaths, and a hierarchy of appeals that culminated in the king or chief magistrate as the supreme judge. Far from being neutral arbiters, judges were charged to actively uphold God’s law, making justice swift, visible, and sacred. This chapter traces how the courtroom was once the throne of righteousness, and how the erosion of that foundation has led not to liberty, but to the rise of secret courts, statism, and administrative tyranny.
