I like the Temple fact. It goes way further back than Rome. Jesus threw out the money changers from the temple. Because they changed sound money for currency, for promissory notes. This way they indebted everyone. Fact 4 - In hebrew sin and debt are the same word. Jesus Christ liberated everyone from debts.

Marcus in Servant King on Bitchute says "you lost what was yours, because you took what was not yours." debt is theft and theft is sin.

Fact 4 - In hebrew sin and debt are the same word.

Oh, I sooo wished this to be true, but it's not.

Debt is 'gove' ( חוב ) sin is 'get' ( חט ) Source: Native Hebrew speaker. (Not me, btw.)

If I recall correctly, the origin for the word credit is from the latin "credo", which translates to "I believe". From this I'd extrapolate that the latin origin for debt should also be the same for "doubt". I didn't know that in hebrew it meant sin. :)

Usury is not a sin for Jews.

I have no problem with usury unless the lender is based in New Jersey
