Deuteronomio 24:22 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 24:22

And thou shalt remember that thou wast a bondman in the land
of Egypt
When they would have been glad to have enjoyed the like favours, as small as they might seem to be, even to glean in their fields, vineyards, and oliveyards;

therefore I command thee to do this thing;
to suffer the poor to take the forgotten sheaf, and to come into their oliveyards and vineyards, and gather what olives and grapes remained after the first beating of the one, and the ingathering of the other.

Deuteronomio 24:22 In-Context

20 Cuando sacudieres tus olivas, no recorrerás las ramas tras ti: para el extranjero, para el huérfano, y para la viuda será.
21 Cuando vendimiares tu viña, no rebuscarás tras ti: para el extranjero, para el huérfano, y para la viuda será.
22 Y acuérdate que fuiste siervo en tierra de Egipto: por tanto, yo te mando que hagas esto.
