Capitalism and interest lending are good bedfellows, but not the same concept.

Judah was certainly capitalist in my mind, I see very little to no difference between their economic system and ours.

Private ownership, trade, lending, where individuals could accumulate wealth and influence through economic activities.

Could you explain to me how it wasn't?

Ancient Israelites didn't have the concepts of money or private property, which are two essential characteristics of capitalism. However, Jews have been associated with money since the Middle Ages when they were only allowed to work in commerce, trade, and other financial industries. As capitalism replaced other forms of commerce, this association remained.

also it's Judea(Iudea). Judah was a dude.

Ancient Israelites were 12 tribes of nomads in the year 2000 BC, 1500 years before judea existed.

The economic system of Judea was entirely based around lending, cash, trade, agriculture, and land ownership.

The story spoken about in the bible, is indeed a cautionary tale about capitalism.

(and to stay on topic)

An ironic reminder that there are no new stories. And all writers are fleshy LLMs.

Here's a banksy:

Hey, you know how we think we're the good guys? Well, we're actually the bad guys except we don't cut people's heads off, but still.

Cautionary tales always seem to be about things that mostly work but sometimes don't. There are no cautionary tales about stuff that never works ever, which some argue is actually worse.
