The Parable of the Unjust Judge, also known as the Parable of the Persistent Widow, is a teaching of Jesus found in the Gospel of Luke (Luke 18:1–8). In this parable, a judge who lacks compassion is repeatedly approached by a woman seeking justice. The story illustrates the necessity of persistent prayer and faith in God's justice. The "unjust judge" represents the antithesis of divine justice, characterized by his lack of fear of God and disregard for people. The concept of unjust judges is a recurring theme in the Bible, highlighting the moral and ethical failures of those in positions of authority who pervert justice for personal gain or out of negligence.
