Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra listed for $949.99 on Amazon following Prime Day
Moral issue
Discounted sale of a consumer electronic device
Biblical principle
When Scripture does not address a specific secular transaction, no moral judgment can be derived.
Old Testament
“But thou shalt pay him the price of his labour the same day, before the going down of the sun, because he is poor, and with it maintaineth his life: lest he cry against thee to the Lord, and it be reputed to thee for a sin.”
This verse concerns timely payment to a worker, which does not apply to the phone discount.
“But the inhabitants of the city of Gabaon which was besieged, sent to Josue, who then abode in the camp at Galgal, and said to him: Withdraw not thy hands from helping thy servants: come up quickly and save us, and bring us succour: for all the kings of the Amorrhites, who dwell in the mountains, are gathered together against us.”
This passage deals with military aid, unrelated to commercial pricing.
New Testament
“Jesus saith to them: Have you never read in the Scriptures: The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner? By the Lord this has been done; and it is wonderful in our eyes.”
This verse speaks of rejection and acceptance, not relevant to the sale.
“Now when it was late that same day, the first of the week, and the doors were shut, where the disciples were gathered together, for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood in the midst, and said to them: Peace be to you.”
This passage concerns the appearance of Christ to the disciples, unrelated to the event.
