This verse from Deuteronomy says that the Levites, who have no land or inheritance, along with strangers, orphans, and widows, should be welcomed to eat and be satisfied.

Объяснение для детей

Imagine you have a big meal and you make sure to invite your friends who don't have much food at home. Moses is saying that we should do the same thing and take care of those who might not have enough. This makes God happy and he blesses us for being kind.

Исторический контекст

Moses spoke this verse to the Israelites around 1200 BCE. The Israelites were preparing to enter the Promised Land and Moses was giving them laws and instructions for how to live once they were settled. The Levites, as priests, were not given land like the other tribes and depended on the community for support.
