The Bible instructs believers to give to the poor willingly and without reluctance, reflecting God's own generosity and love. Old Testament Foundations The Old Testament lays a strong foundation for the care of the poor. In <a href="/deuteronomy/15-7.htm">Deuteronomy 15:7-8</a> , the Israelites are commanded: "If there is a poor man among your brothers within any of the gates in the land that the LORD your God is giving you, you are not to harden your heart or shut your hand from your poor brother. Instead, you are to open your hand to him and freely loan him whatever he needs." This passage underscores the expectation of open-handed generosity, highlighting the importance of a willing heart. <a href="/proverbs/19-17.htm">Proverbs 19:17</a> further reinforces this principle: "Kindness to the poor is a loan to the LORD, and He will repay the lender." Here, the act of giving to the poor is equated with lending to God Himself, promising divine reward for such generosity. New Testament Teachings The New Testament continues this theme, with Jesus and the apostles emphasizing the importance of giving without grudging. In <a href="/matthew/6-2.htm">Matthew 6:2-4</a> , Jesus instructs, "So when you give to the needy, do not sound a trumpet before you, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and on the streets, to be honored by men. Truly I tell you, they already have their reward. But when you give to the needy, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, so that your giving may be in secret. And your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you." This teaching highlights the importance of sincerity and humility in giving, focusing on the heart's intention rather than public recognition. The Apostle Paul also addresses this issue in <a href="/2_corinthians/9-7.htm">2 Corinthians 9:7</a> : "Each one should give what he has decided in his heart to give, not out of regret or compulsion. For God loves a cheerful giver." This verse emphasizes the importance of giving willingly and joyfully, rather than out of obligation or reluctance. Theological Implications The call to give to the poor without grudging is deeply rooted in the character of God, who is described as compassionate and generous. Believers are called to imitate these attributes, reflecting God's love and mercy to those in need. The act of giving is not merely a duty but a privilege, allowing Christians to participate in God's work of justice and mercy. Furthermore, the biblical teaching on giving to the poor challenges believers to examine their own hearts and attitudes towards wealth and possessions. It calls for a reorientation of priorities, placing the needs of others above personal gain and comfort. This selfless approach to giving is a testament to the transformative power of the Gospel, which calls individuals to live lives marked by love and generosity.<a name="ttt" id="ttt"></a><div class="vheading2">Torrey's Topical Textbook</div><a href="/deuteronomy/15-10.htm">Deuteronomy 15:10</a> You shall surely give him, and your heart shall not be grieved when you give to him: because that for this thing the LORD your God shall bless you in all your works, and in all that you put your hand to.
