DAILY HOMILIES #greatest commandment

“If you do afflict them, and they cry out to me, I will surely hear their cry; and my wrath will burn, and I will kill you with the sword, and your wives shall become widows and your children fatherless.” (Exodus 22:23-24). Proverbs further drives this point home: “He who closes his ear to the cry of the poor will himself cry out and not be heard.” (Proverbs 21:13).
