'Relief' in the Bible

Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me [following Me as My disciple], for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest (renewal, blessed quiet) for your souls.

Now about this time, when the number of disciples was increasing, a complaint was made by the Hellenists (Greek-speaking Jews) against the [native] Hebrews, because their widows were being overlooked in the daily serving of food.

Then the disciples, every man according to his ability, determined to send relief unto the brethren which dwelt in Judaea:

After they had completed their relief mission, Barnabas and Saul returned to Jerusalem, taking along John who is called Mark.

But for now, I am going to Jerusalem to serve the saints (Jewish believers).

for Macedonia and Greece have kindly contributed a certain sum in relief of the poor among God's people, in Jerusalem.

[and pray] that I may be rescued from the unbelievers in Judea, and that my service for Jerusalem may be acceptable to the saints (Jewish believers) there;

Now concerning the money collected for [the relief of] the saints [in Jerusalem], you are to do the same as I directed the churches of Galatia to do.

For even when we were come into Macedonia our flesh had no relief, but we were afflicted on every side; without were fightings, within were fears.

begging us insistently for the privilege of participating in the service for [the support of] the saints [in Jerusalem].

I give you my opinion in this matter: this is to your advantage, who were the first to begin a year ago not only to take action [to help the believers in Jerusalem], but also [the first] to desire to do it.

It is not that there may be relief for others and hardship for you, but it is a question of equality—

and from Jesus, who is called Justus. These are the only fellow workers for the kingdom of God who are from the circumcision (Jewish Christians), and they have proved to be an encouragement and a comfort to me.

and to give us who are afflicted relief when the Lord Jesus is revealed from heaven with his mighty angels

borne witness to in good works, if she have brought up children, if she have exercised hospitality, if she have washed saints' feet, if she have imparted relief to the distressed, if she have diligently followed every good work.

If any believing man or woman have widows, let them impart relief to them, and let not the assembly be charged, that it may impart relief to those that are widows indeed.
