Throughout the Torah, widows are grouped with orphans and strangers, representing those who often lacked a support system in ancient communities. For instance, Exodus&nbsp;22:22-24 explicitly commands to not mistreat them which underscores God\u2019s priority given to the care of widows, with severe consequences for neglecting or harming them. In Deuteronomy&nbsp;14:28-29, there is a command to set aside a tithe every third year to support not only the Levites but also widows, orphans, and strangers. Similarly, Deuteronomy&nbsp;24:19-21 instructs landowners to leave behind gleanings of the harvest, olives, and grapes for widows and the disadvantaged, ensuring their survival and dignity. These laws institutionalize compassion, showing that honoring widows isn&#8217;t merely an act of kindness but a covenantal responsibility within the community. The Torah\u2019s emphasis on supporting widows aligns with the NT instruction to honor widows. This foundational teaching is in the NT text demonstrating how the NT is teaching Torah to God\u2019s people!
