“on all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgments: I am the Lord” – Exodus 12:12

“For the Lord your God is God of gods and Lord of lords, the great God, mighty and awesome, who is not partial and takes no bribe, who executes justice for the orphan and the widow, and who loves the strangers, providing them food and clothing.” – Deuteronomy 10:17-18
“Jesus said, ‘The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he has anointed me to bring good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim release to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to let the oppressed go free, to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor.'” – Luke 4:18-19
“Jesus is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation; for in him all things in heaven and one earth were created, things visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or powers – all things have been created through him and for him. He himself is before all things, and in him all things hold together. He is the head of the body, the church…and through him God was pleased to reconcile to himself all things, whether on earth or in heaven, by making peace through the cross.” – Colossians 1:17-20
