What is Deuteronomy 15 saying about the poor?
score:4
Accepted answer
Verse 5 is a continuation of 4 which ends with a comma.
, 5 if only you listen obediently to the voice of the Lord your God, to observe carefully all this commandment which I am commanding you today.
So it is saying if you were to do these things then you will have no poor. Verse 11 is pretty much saying that we either cannot or are will not do these things so we will always have the poor with us.
