What Does the Bible Say About Mercy?
Key Scriptures and spiritual guidance on mercy
התנ"ך מדבר על רחמים במקומות רבים, מדגיש חשיבותם והשפעתם החיובית שיש להם על האדם. ברחמים מתבטאת החסד והאהבה של האל כלפי האדם, והם מזכים לקבל רחמים גם מצדם של אחרים. התנ"ך מלמד שהאל רחום וחנון, ומבקש מאיתנו להיות רחומים זה על זה ולעשות צדקה וחסד.
