Leviticus 6:1-5 This passage outlines restitution for theft, requiring the thief to return what was stolen and add an additional fifth as compensation. Deuteronomy\u00a024:19-21 <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><em>&#8220;When you harvest your field, do not go back for what you missed. Leave it for the stranger, the fatherless, and the widow.&#8221;<\/em><\/span> This alludes to how one should work for their food, not steal, and the scripture teaches generosity and ensuring that those in need receive help. These passages show that the Torah promotes honest labor, restitution, and generosity, much like Paul&#8217;s teaching in Ephesians. This is how Paul and the NT text taught Torah, the Torah has not passed away!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bits of Torah Truths &#8211; Torah Concept in the NT: Let the Thief Work Instead of Stealing &#8211; Episode 541 Ephesians\u00a04:28\u00a0\u05d4\u05b7\u05d2\u05bc\u05d5\u05b9\u05e0\u05b5\u05d1 \u05d0\u05b7\u05dc \u05d9\u05d5\u05b9\u05e1\u05b4\u05d9\u05e3 \u05dc\u05b4\u05d2\u05b0\u05e0\u05b9\u05d1, \u05db\u05b4\u05bc\u05d9 \u05d0\u05b4\u05dd \u05d9\u05b7\u05e2\u05b2\u05de\u05b9\u05dc \u05d5\u05bc\u05d1\u05b0\u05d9\u05b8\u05d3\u05b8\u05d9\u05d5 \u05d9\u05b7\u05e2\u05b2\u05e9\u05b6\u05c2\u05d4 \u05d0\u05b6\u05ea \u05d4\u05b7\u05d8\u05bc\u05d5\u05b9\u05d1 \u05db\u05b0\u05bc\u05d3\u05b5\u05d9 \u05e9\u05b6\u05c1\u05d9\u05d5\u05bc\u05db\u05b7\u05dc \u05dc\u05b8\u05ea\u05b5\u05ea \u05dc\u05b0\u05de\u05b4\u05d9 \u05e9\u05b6\u05c1\u05e9\u05b8\u05bc\u05c1\u05e8\u05d5\u05bc\u05d9 \u05d1\u05b0\u05bc\u05de\u05b7\u05d7\u05b0\u05e1\u05d5\u05b9\u05e8.\u00a0 #torah\u00a0#torahwisdom\u00a0#torahtruth\u00a0#torahforlife\u00a0#torah4you\u00a0#torahtruth\u00a0 Ephesians\u00a04:28\u00a04:28\u00a0He who steals must steal no longer; but rather he must labor, performing with his own hands [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":23727,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[48,34],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-23725","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-bits-of-torah-truths","8":"category-video"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.matsati.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23725","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.matsati.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.matsati.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.matsati.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.matsati.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=23725"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.matsati.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23725\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":23726,"href":"https:\/\/www.matsati.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23725\/revisions\/23726"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.matsati.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/23727"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.matsati.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=23725"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.matsati.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=23725"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.matsati.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=23725"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
