Chains of Interest: Exposing Usury From Scripture to Babylon

This series pulls back the curtain on one of the Bible’s most overlooked commands: God’s prohibition of usury. From Israel’s covenant laws to the rise of banking, from Jewish moneylending to global debt systems, we trace how interest became the backbone of nations — and the chain around humanity’s neck. Far from being just economics, usury is revealed as a spiritual weapon of Babylon that enslaves souls as well as societies. In contrast, God offers His people a Kingdom economy built on mercy, freedom, and Jubilee.
