This study aims to uncover the theological meaning of Jesus' compassion as expressed in Matthew 9:36 through a biblical exegetical approach. This verse demonstrates Jesus' emotional and spiritual response to the plight of the crowd, described as "weary and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd." Using the historical-grammatical exegesis method, this study examines the literary, historical, and linguistic context of the text, particularly the Greek word ἐσπλαγχνίσθη splanchnizomai, which describes compassion born from the depths of the heart. The analysis reveals that Jesus' compassion reflects the core of His messianic mission: God's active involvement in human suffering. This compassion is not merely passive sympathy, but an act that restores, teaches, and shepherds the lost, spiritually and socially. Thus, Matthew 9:36 reveals that Jesus' compassion is the foundation of the Gospel ministry, which emphasizes love, restoration, and God's presence amidst human suffering. Its theological implications emphasize that believers are called to embody Christ's compassion in their lives through loving, empathetic, and caring service to others.

This study examines the challenges and solutions in bureaucratic transformation towards digitalization in government institutions, with a focus on the administrative services for issuing Certificates of Existence of Mass Organizations/NGOs by the National Unity and Politics Agency (Kesbangpol). The main obstacles identified include data fragmentation, outdated regulations, rigid organizational structures, and resistance to change. Limited human resource competency and political instability also hamper the implementation of reforms.

Cybersecurity infrastructure development, organizational restructuring, and human resource capacity building through digital training are essential. Furthermore, strong political commitment is crucial to ensure the sustainability of reforms. Interviews indicate that service quality, verification standards, and speed of service influence public trust and satisfaction. Successful bureaucratic reform requires a combination of technological, regulatory, organizational, and cultural strategies to create modern and responsive public services.

Located in Karangjati, Semarang Regency. The rapid development of the culinary industry has led to increasingly fierce competition. Customer satisfaction is crucial for business continuity.

In the current era of digitalization, public needs for fast, efficient, and transparent public services are increasing. The Sidoarjo Regency Government responds to these needs by launching a technology-based public service innovation, namely the Sidoarjo People's Service System (SiPraja) application. This study aims to analyze the implementation of public policy through SiPraja in Medaeng Village, Waru District, Sidoarjo Regency. The method used is descriptive qualitative with data collection techniques through in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and documentation study. Research informants consisted of the Village Head, village officials, SiPraja operators, and community service users. The results show that the implementation of SiPraja in Medaeng Village has been quite good based on the Van Meter and Van Horn indicators, including the size and objectives of the policy, resources, characteristics of implementing agents, attitudes of implementers, inter-organizational communication, and social, economic, political environments. Supporting factors for implementation include high village government commitment, adequate technology infrastructure availability, and active community participation. However, there are still obstacles in the form of uneven digital literacy among the community, especially in the elderly age group, and limited understanding of some residents regarding application usage procedures. This study provides recommendations to increase the intensity of socialization and training on the use of the SiPraja application, as well as optimize the role of RT/RW as community assistance agents.
