Summary: Deuteronomy Chapter 15 addresses the laws concerning debt cancellation and the treatment of the poor. The chapter introduces the concept of the "Year of Release," which occurs every seven years when all debts are forgiven. This practice is established to promote social equity and provide relief to those in financial distress. The chapter emphasizes the importance of generosity towards the less fortunate and discourages hardheartedness or reluctance to lend during the approach of the Year of Release. Additionally, it stresses that while lending is encouraged, it should be done without expecting repayment in the year prior to the debt cancellation. Furthermore, the text underlines the obligation to care for the needy within the community, with a focus on both physical and emotional support. The advancements of compassion and social justice are central themes, underscoring God's desire for His people to live in a community marked by mercy and generosity. The chapter concludes with instructions regarding the release of indentured servants, reinforcing principles of freedom and dignity for all individuals.
