This is beautiful. One comment: immigrant is not the opposite of citizen. The great majority of immigrants are citizens (in the US). Thank you for challenging my thinking on Jesus’ attitude toward the wealthy.
That is true, thank you. In fact, a lot of those dichotomies are not appropriate. That was kind of the point.
I am working quite a bit in setting up a DOJ-recognized immigration center right now. I've had to learn a lot about the differences and yet overlaps between the terminology of migrants, refugees, asylum seekers, immigrants, and more. It's staggering, actually.

But you are absolutely right.
Thank you for your response and for your work in that area. You’re right, the terminology is complex!
