Luke 18:8
""I tell you that He will bring about justice for them quickly. However, when the Son of Man comes, will He find faith on the earth?""
Does Luke 18 portray God as a wicked judge?
The point is made in typical rabbinic 'how much more' fashion (v. 7—that is, if the lesser case is valid, then the greater one must be valid also): if this is what even the most wicked judge will do for the most persistent petitioner, how much more will God take care of His own whom He loves and who have trusted Him? Those unfamiliar with the operative rabbinic hermeneutic might mistakenly think the message is that believers must shut off their critical minds regarding the perfection and faithfulness of God. Instead, one must recognize the parable's didactic structure in its proper cultural context.
