Diversity is at the heart of Israel’s survival, beginning with Tamar and her mother-in-law, then extending to Zipporah, Jethro, Caleb, Othniel, Rahab, Jael and even a Persian king. This diversity brought Gentiles who saved the Abrahamic promise, counseled Israel’s leaders (or led Israel themselves), and entered the ancestry of David and Jesus Christ. God does amazing things, and He chooses the most diverse people to do it. He even chose a Persian as His last Christ-king (or ‘anointed’ king) before the coming of the final and complete king, Jesus Christ. Looking forward to today as Christians, we embrace the tapestry of diversity and inclusion as a testimony of our heritage as well as recognition of the unity in Christ’s present and future kingdom.
