States, in Israel and throughout the Diaspora and to develop leadership.
More
Maimonides declared that there are eight degrees of tzedakah,
each one superior to the other.
The person at the highest level, he said, "is one who enters into
a partnership with a Jew reduced to poverty, or finds work for him, in
order to strengthen his hand, so that he will have no need to beg from
other people."
Helping another human being become self-sufficient, according to Maimonides,
is the most elevated form of charity. OpenCube Drop Down Menu (www.opencube.com) |
