Dr. Zehnder unpacks the biblical distinctions between the Hebrew terms \"ger\" and the \"nokri,\" exposing how modern discussions often cherry-pick verses, ignore context, and collapse categories. The discussion explores assimilation, love for the stranger, individual compassion versus state policy, and why mass immigration today differs dramatically from ancient Israel's low-volume, high-integration reality.
