Lev 19:10 And you shall not strip your vineyard bare, neither shall you gather the fallen grapes of your vineyard. You shall leave them for the poor and for the sojourner: I am the LORD your God. Lev 19:11Hardly anyone reads the books of the laws and statutes of God's people, Leviticus. Yes, some of the ceremonial laws, sacrificial laws and purification laws have been eclipsed by the all encompassing life, death and resurrection of Christ. Yet, the intent of harmony, justice and truth contained, points forever to the absolute love of God. God is forever looking to pour favor on the least favorable people in this world of sickness and self elevation. The poor, the sojourner, the alien, widow and orphan are especially under the eye and care of the one who is absolute love. "You shall not steal; you shall not deal falsely; you shall not lie to one another.
