Message definition (Does theonomy require commitment to a particular view of eschatology (end times)? )
YHWH cared (and cares) just as much about injustice happening outside the boundaries of Israel as injustice within. He gave his good laws to deal properly -- justly -- with acts of injustice. He gave his laws as a transcendent standard to define crime and "evildoing", and also to limit the scope of civil government (Deut. 4:2). He subordinated human rulers to his unchangeable law, so that they would not lift themselves up above their brothers (Deut. 17:18-20).
