Chesed – part 2
How does God go that extra mile?
So there it is. Chesed is probably not a word you’ve ever heard of and many theologians and translators were so flummoxed by it that they have put forward an extensive collection of possible meanings, to cover all bases. It is really quite simple as chesed is probably the defining characteristic of God. It is His chesed and, when we become one with Him, we also inherit chesed, enabling us to go above and beyond, as we saw in the Sermon on the Mount.
