Assisting Widows

Pa’al Taught Against Assisting Certain Widows

“Let not a widow be taken into the number under threescore years old, having been the woman of one man, Well reported of for good works; if she have brought up children, if she have lodged strangers, if she have washed the qodeshiym’s feet, if she have relieved the afflicted, if she have diligently followed every good work. But the younger widows refuse: for when they have begun to wax wanton against Mashiach, they will marry; Having damnation, because they have cast off their first faith. And withal they learn to be idle, wandering about from house to house; and not only idle, but tattlers also and busybodies, speaking things which they ought not. I will therefore that the younger women marry, bear children, guide the house, give none occasion to the adversary to speak reproachfully. For some are already turned aside after Satan. If any man or woman that believes have widows, let them relieve them, and let not the called out assembly be charged; that it may relieve them that are widows indeed.”

Timotheus Ri’shon (1 Timothy) 5:9-16

Torah and Yahusha Mashiach Instructed Followers of Yahuah to Assist Widows, While Warning Against Hypocritical Men Holding High Positions In Yashar’el Who Rob Widows

“Ye shall not afflict any widow, or fatherless child. If you afflict them in any wise, and they cry at all unto me, I will surely hear their cry; And my wrath shall wax hot, and I will kill you with the sword; and your women shall be widows, and your children fatherless.”

Shemoth (Exodus) 22:22-24

“You shall not pervert the judgment of the stranger, nor of the fatherless; nor take a widow’s raiment to pledge: But you shall remember that you were a bondman in Mitsrayim, and Yahuah Elohayka redeemed you thence: therefore I command you to do this thing.”

Devariym (Deuteronomy) 24:17-18

“Cursed be he that perverts the judgment of the stranger, fatherless, and widow. And all the people shall say, Amein.”

Devariym (Deuteronomy) 27:19

“Woe unto them that decree unrighteous decrees, and that write grievousness which they have prescribed; To turn aside the needy from judgment, and to take away the right from the poor of my people, that widows may be their prey, and that they may rob the fatherless!”

Yesha’yahu (Isaiah) 10:1-2

“And the Word of Yahuah came unto Zakaryahu, saying, “Thus speaks Yahuah Tseva’oth, saying, ‘Execute true judgment, and show mercy and compassions every man to his brother: And oppress not the widow, nor the fatherless, the stranger, nor the poor; and let none of you imagine evil against his brother in your heart.’ But they refused to hearken, and pulled away the shoulder, and stopped their ears, that they should not hear. Yea, they made their hearts as an adamant stone, lest they should hear the Torah, and the words which Yahuah Tseva’oth has sent in his Ruach by the former prophets: therefore came a great wrath from Yahuah Tseva’oth. ‘Therefore it is come to pass, that as he cried, and they would not hear; so they cried, and I would not hear,’ says Yahuah Tseva’oth:””

Zakaryahu (Zechariah) 7:8-13

“And I will come near to you to judgment; and I will be a swift witness against the sorcerers, and against those who break wedlock, and against false swearers, and against those that oppress the hireling in his wages, the widow, and the fatherless, and that turn aside the stranger from his right, and fear not me, says Yahuah Tseva’oth.”

Mal’akiy (Malachi) 3:5

“A father of the fatherless, and a judge of the widows, is Elohiym in his holy habitation. Elohiym sets the solitary in families: he brings out those which are bound with chains: but the rebellious dwell in a dry land.”

Tehilliym (Psalms) 68:5-6

“Yahuah guards the strangers; he relieves the fatherless and widow: but the way of the wicked he turns upside down.”

Tehilliym (Psalms) 146:9

“Woe unto you, scribes and Parashiym, hypocrites! for ye devour widows’ houses, and for a pretence make long prayer: therefore ye shall receive the greater damnation.”

Mattithyahu (Matthew) 23:14

“And he said unto them in his doctrine, “Beware of the scribes, which love to go in long clothing, and love salutations in the marketplaces, And the chief seats in the synagogues, and the uppermost rooms at feasts: Which devour widows’ houses, and for a pretence make long prayers: these shall receive greater damnation.””

Marqus (Mark) 12:38-40

“And he spoke a parable unto them to this end, that men ought always to pray, and not to faint; Saying, There was in a city a judge, which feared not Elohiym, neither regarded man: And there was a widow in that city; and she came unto him, saying, Avenge me of my adversary. And he would not for a while: but afterward he said within himself, Though I fear not Elohiym, nor regard man; Yet because this widow troubles me, I will avenge her, lest by her continual coming she weary me. And Adonai said, Hear what the unjust judge says. And shall not Elohiym avenge his own elect, which cry day and night unto him, though he bear long with them? I tell you that he will avenge them speedily. Nevertheless when the Son of A’dam comes, shall he find faith on the earth?”

Luqas (Luke) 18:1-8

“Pure observance and undefiled before Elohiym and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world.”

Ya`aqov (James) 1:27
