They are problem of routine deviation from established standards and norms by public officials and parties with whom they interact. It is widely held that bribery and corruption and the bane of development of many nations in the world today. This study examined Yahweh’s instruction to ancient Israel on bribery and corruption.

As a corollary, the study explored how Nigerians are expected to handle the issue of bribery and corruption in our contemporary time. African Biblical Hermeneutics was used for the study.
