History’s oldest pattern is repeating itself.
Empires rise by offloading their burden onto a “sub-class” of humanity — Pharaoh on Israel, Babylon on the exiles, Rome on the provinces. Scripture calls it out as sin: building a city on blood, founding a system on iniquity (Hab. 2:12).
In the New Testament, Paul warns the nations: “Do not be arrogant toward the root.” (Rom. 11:18) The covenant work of Israel — the biological, historical, spiritual labor of carrying humanity’s story — cannot simply be seized, commodified, or bypassed. Grace grafts nations in; it does not erase the root.
Every system that inverts this order ends the same way:
Judgment before renewal.
Remnant preserved.
Resurrection from ruin.
The lesson is not ancient myth; it is live reality. When we watch societies trying to offload their work onto a lesser class, we are witnessing Pharaoh and Babylon again — the old mask, new costume. The Bible’s verdict is consistent: such systems collapse. The root remains. The branches that boast are cut off.
This is not a call to panic but to sobriety. We cannot build a just future by repeating the oldest injustice. The patient may feel no pain now, but the scalpel of history is already at work.
