Leviticus 19:9-10
““‘When you reap the harvest of your land, you shall not wholly reap the corners of your field, neither shall you gather the gleanings of your harvest. You shall not glean your vineyard, neither shall you gather the fallen grapes of your vineyard. You shall leave them for the poor and for the foreigner. I am Yahweh your God.’”
This passage is part of the 'Holiness Code' in Leviticus, given to the people of Israel shortly after their exodus from Egypt. It outlines practical ways they are to live out their covenant relationship with God, establishing a just and compassionate society.
What practical steps can I take to ensure that my own abundance creates space for those who have less?
