Lutheran understand the Bible and the Word of God as Law and Gospel. Gospel gives comfort and hope. The law confronts injustice and points toward a better world. You can imagine Nehemiah reading the law and the people crying as they confront injustice in their lives.
Paul’s instruction in 1 Corinthians 12:12-31a points to a shared concept of living together in unity like parts of a body.
