Thematic Bible: Despise not


Thematic Bible




For if a man with a gold ring, in fine clothing, comes into your synagogue, and a poor man in filthy clothing also comes in; and you pay special attention to him who wears the fine clothing, and say, "Sit here in a good place;" and you tell the poor man, "Stand there," or "Sit by my footstool;" haven't you shown partiality among yourselves, and become judges with evil thoughts?

He who despises his neighbor sins, but blessed is he who has pity on the poor. Verse ConceptsFaultsKindnessDespising PeopleBlessings For Those Who Help The PoorBelittlingHelping The Poor
