TREASURES FROM GOD’S WORD
How the Law Demonstrated Jehovah’s Concern for the Poor
The poor and those who had no inheritance received help from the nation of Israel (De 14:28, 29; w11-ASL 9/15 1:5)
During the Sabbath year, Israelites who owed money were granted “a release” from their debt (De 15:1-3; it-2-E 833)
In the seventh year of his servitude, an Israelite who had sold himself into slavery was set free and given a gift by his master (De 15:12-14; w05-ASL 4/1 2:2; w08-ASL 10/15 5:9)
