prepare for me delicious food,
that I may eat it and bless you
before the Lord before I die.’ Now

as I command you. Go to the flock
and bring me two good young goats,
so that I may prepare from them
delicious food for your father,
such as he loves. And you shall
bring it to your father to eat, so
that he may bless you before he
dies.” ...

assembly, and a poor man in shabby
clothing also comes in, and if you
pay attention to the one who wears

sit here in a good place,” while
you say to the poor man, “You
stand over there,” or, “Sit down
at my feet,” have you not then
made distinctions among yourselves
and become judges with evil
thoughts? Listen, my beloved
brothers, has not God chosen those
who are poor in the world to be
rich in faith and heirs of the
kingdom, which he has promised to
those who love him? ...
