Joseph Caryl was a member of the Westminster Assembly. Here he writes on Job 34 and the concept of a “crying” or extremely bad sin. Caryl says that oppression of the poor is an act that “crieth loud”, even if the oppressed shut their mouths. This is because it cries out to God.

Today, are we told to listen to another cry, the cry of those “oppressed” from hearing too much about the poor?

How can you seek out those who may have shut their mouths in suffering?
