Deuteronomy 15:7-8
“If there is with you a poor man, any of your brothers, within any of your gates in your land which Yahweh your God gives you, you shall not harden your heart, nor shut your hand from your poor brother; but you shall open your hand wide to him, and shall surely lend him sufficient for his need, in that which he wants.”
This passage is part of Moses's instructions to the Israelites before they enter the promised land. It outlines principles for a just society, specifically addressing how they are to care for the poor among them, emphasizing generosity and open-handedness.
How might our actions today reflect the spirit of open-handedness, particularly when considering those who might be disadvantaged by new technologies?
