"Justice Amidst Tragedy: Jesus’s Parables in Dialogue with Itaewon and Sewol"

This morning, I revised my essay titled "Justice Amidst Tragedy: Jesus’s Parables in Dialogue with Itaewon and Sewol." This piece demonstrates the contemporary resonance and profound challenges of justice by bridging specific parables with modern crises, specifically examining the Korean tragedies of Itaewon and Sewol. These case studies expose the critical interplay between retributive and restorative justice in the urgent pursuit of accountability, compensation, and restoration.
