Theological / Devotional

Thrones of judgment. Jerusalem, as the seat of government, was the center of justice for the entire nation. Had Israel’s kings ruled as God designed, their governments would have promoted and conserved mercy, righteousness, peace, joy, love. These are the qualities that come from the divine throne.
