Do not mistreat an alien or oppress him, for you were aliens in Egypt.
Ex 22:21
(Grand Rapids: Zondervan, 1996, c1984).Do not oppress an alien; you yourselves know how it feels to be aliens, because you were aliens in Egypt. Ex 23:9
(Grand Rapids: Zondervan, 1996, c1984).When an alien lives with you in your land, do not mistreat him. The alien living with you must be treated as one of your native-born. Love him as yourself, for you were aliens in Egypt. I am the Lord your God. Le 19:33-34
(Grand Rapids: Zondervan, 1996, c1984).Was Israel to distinguish between documented and undocumented aliens, in deciding how to treat the aliens that lived among them?
Another question: What would Jesus do?

Thanks for your comments, Meg, and for your life of service. I appreciated your help the other day, and appreciate your constant presence. Blessings!
I love that comparison in this politically hyped time. Jesus has a way of side-stepping issues and getting to the heart of things for Jerusalem, Judea, Samaria, and the ends of the earth, whatever that might look like.
