Deuteronomy, 15

1. 'At the end of every seven years, you must grant remission.

1. "At the end of every seven years you shall grant a release.

2. The nature of the remission is as follows: any creditor holding a personal pledge obtained from his fellow must release him from it; he must not exploit his fellow or his brother once the latter has appealed to Yahweh for remission.

2. And this is the manner of the release: every creditor shall release what he has lent to his neighbor; he shall not exact it of his neighbor, his brother, because the LORD's release has been proclaimed.

3. A foreigner you may exploit, but you must remit whatever claim you have on your brother.

3. Of a foreigner you may exact it; but whatever of yours is with your brother your hand shall release.

4. There must, then, be no poor among you. For Yahweh will grant you his blessing in the country which Yahweh your God is giving you to possess as your heritage,

4. But there will be no poor among you (for the LORD will bless you in the land which the LORD your God gives you for an inheritance to possess),

5. only if you pay careful attention to the voice of Yahweh your God, by keeping and practising all these commandments which I am enjoining on you today.

5. if only you will obey the voice of the LORD your God, being careful to do all this commandment which I command you this day.

6. If Yahweh your God blesses you as he has promised, you will be creditors to many nations but debtors to none; you will rule over many nations, and be ruled by none.

6. For the LORD your God will bless you, as he promised you, and you shall lend to many nations, but you shall not borrow; and you shall rule over many nations, but they shall not rule over you.

7. 'Is there anyone poor among you, one of your brothers, in any town of yours in the country which Yahweh your God is giving you? Do not harden your heart or close your hand against that poor brother of yours,

7. "If there is among you a poor man, one of your brethren, in any of your towns within your land which the LORD your God gives you, you shall not harden your heart or shut your hand against your poor brother,

8. but be open handed with him and lend him enough for his needs.

8. but you shall open your hand to him, and lend him sufficient for his need, whatever it may be.

9. Do not allow this mean thought in your heart, "The seventh year, the year of remission, is near," and scowl at your poor brother and give him nothing; he could appeal against you to Yahweh, and you would incur guilt!

9. Take heed lest there be a base thought in your heart, and you say, `The seventh year, the year of release is near,' and your eye be hostile to your poor brother, and you give him nothing, and he cry to the LORD against you, and it be sin in you.

10. When you give to him, you must give with an open heart; for this, Yahweh your God will bless you in all your actions and in all your undertakings.

10. You shall give to him freely, and your heart shall not be grudging when you give to him; because for this the LORD your God will bless you in all your work and in all that you undertake.

11. Of course, there will never cease to be poor people in the country, and that is why I am giving you this command: Always be open handed with your brother, and with anyone in your country who is in need and poor.

11. For the poor will never cease out of the land; therefore I command you, You shall open wide your hand to your brother, to the needy and to the poor, in the land.

12. 'If your fellow Hebrew, man or woman, sells himself to you, he can serve you for six years. In the seventh year you must set him free,

12. "If your brother, a Hebrew man, or a Hebrew woman, is sold to you, he shall serve you six years, and in the seventh year you shall let him go free from you.

13. and in setting him free you must not let him go empty handed.

13. And when you let him go free from you, you shall not let him go empty-handed;

14. By way of present, you will load his shoulders with things from your flock, from your threshing-floor and from your winepress; as Yahweh your God has blessed you, so you must give to him.

14. you shall furnish him liberally out of your flock, out of your threshing floor, and out of your wine press; as the LORD your God has blessed you, you shall give to him.

15. Remember that you were once a slave in Egypt and that Yahweh your God redeemed you; that is why I am giving you this order today.

15. You shall remember that you were a slave in the land of Egypt, and the LORD your God redeemed you; therefore I command you this today.

16. 'But if he says to you, "I do not want to leave you," because he loves you and your household and is happy with you,

16. But if he says to you, `I will not go out from you,' because he loves you and your household, since he fares well with you,

17. you must take an awl and drive it through his ear into the door and he will be your servant for ever. You must do the same to a female slave.

17. then you shall take an awl, and thrust it through his ear into the door, and he shall be your bondman for ever. And to your bondwoman you shall do likewise.

18. 'Do not think it hard on you to have to give him his freedom; he is worth twice what a paid servant would cost you, and has served you for six years. And Yahweh your God will bless you in everything you do.

18. It shall not seem hard to you, when you let him go free from you; for at half the cost of a hired servant he has served you six years. So the LORD your God will bless you in all that you do.

19. 'You must consecrate every first-born male from your herd and flock to Yahweh your God. You must not put the first-born of your herd to work, or shear the first-born of your flock.

19. "All the firstling males that are born of your herd and flock you shall consecrate to the LORD your God; you shall do no work with the firstling of your herd, nor shear the firstling of your flock.

20. You must eat it, you and your household, each year, in the presence of Yahweh your God, in the place which Yahweh chooses.

20. You shall eat it, you and your household, before the LORD your God year by year at the place which the LORD will choose.

21. If it has any defect, if it is lame or blind -- any serious defect -- you must not sacrifice it to Yahweh your God.

21. But if it has any blemish, if it is lame or blind, or has any serious blemish whatever, you shall not sacrifice it to the LORD your God.

22. You will eat it at home, unclean and clean together, as you would gazelle or deer;

22. You shall eat it within your towns; the unclean and the clean alike may eat it, as though it were a gazelle or a hart.

23. only, you will not eat its blood, but pour that like water on the ground.'

23. Only you shall not eat its blood; you shall pour it out on the ground like water.

Fußnoten:

15:1-2 - Der Schuldenerlass alle sieben Jahre ist Ausdruck der Gnade und Barmherzigkeit Gottes. Ziel dieser Praxis ist es, soziale Gerechtigkeit und Solidarität unter den Gemeindemitgliedern zu wahren (siehe auch Levitikus 25:10 und Lukas 4:18-19).

15:7-11 - Der Aufruf zur Großzügigkeit gegenüber den Armen unterstreicht die Bedeutung von Mitgefühl und sozialer Verantwortung. Gottes Volk ist dazu berufen, sich um die Bedürftigen zu kümmern und so Gottes Charakter widerzuspiegeln (siehe auch Sprüche 19,17 und Jakobus 2,15-16).

15:12-18 - Die Freilassung hebräischer Diener nach sechsjähriger Dienstzeit ist ein Beispiel für Gerechtigkeit und Wiederherstellung. Sie unterstreicht die Würde des Menschen und das Bedürfnis nach Freiheit in Gott (siehe auch Exodus 21:2 und Galater 5:1).

Verse im Zusammenhang mit Deuteronomy, 15:

Deuteronomium Kapitel 15 fördert soziale Gerechtigkeit. Wie schützt Gottes Gesetz die Schwachen? Dieser entscheidende Text legt das Jahr des Schuldenerlasses fest, regelt die Befreiung von Sklaven und fordert zur Großzügigkeit gegenüber den Armen auf. Das Kapitel betont Mitgefühl, soziale Verantwortung und Vertrauen in die göttliche Versorgung. Deuteronomium 15 stellt ein Modell einer gerechten und barmherzigen Gesellschaft dar. Betrachten Sie mit uns fünf Bibelstellen, die die bleibenden Prinzipien dieses transformativen Kapitels verdeutlichen.

2. Korinther 8:13-15: "Was wir wollen, ist Gleichberechtigung. Vorerst wird Ihr Überfluss ihren Bedarf decken, so dass wiederum ihr Überfluss Ihren Bedarf decken wird. Dann wird es Gleichheit geben, wie geschrieben steht: „Wer viel sammelte, hatte nicht zu viel, und wer wenig sammelte, dem mangelte es nicht.“" - Paulus wendet das Prinzip der Fürsorge für die Armen in Deuteronomium 15 auf die Kirche an.

Matthäus 5:42: "Geben Sie denen, die Sie darum bitten, und wenden Sie sich nicht von denen ab, die etwas von Ihnen leihen wollen." - Jesus wiederholt den Befehl aus Deuteronomium 15, den Bedürftigen gegenüber großzügig zu sein.

Galater 2:10: "Sie baten uns lediglich, der Armen zu gedenken, was ich mit aller Kraft tat." - Die Apostel konzentrieren sich weiterhin auf die Fürsorge für die Armen, ein zentrales Thema in Deuteronomium 15.

Jakobus 2:15-16: "Wenn ein Bruder oder eine Schwester Kleidung und tägliche Nahrung braucht und einer von euch zu ihm sagt: „Geht in Frieden, sei warm und ernähre dich, bis du satt bist“, ihm aber nichts zu geben, welchen Sinn hat das dann?" - Jakobus wendet den Grundsatz der Fürsorge für die Armen in Deuteronomium 15 auf das praktische christliche Leben an.

Lukas 4:18-19: "Der Geist des Herrn ruht auf mir, denn er hat mich gesalbt, den Armen die frohe Botschaft zu verkünden. Er hat mich gesandt, um die Freiheit für die Gefangenen und die Wiedererlangung des Augenlichts für die Blinden zu verkünden, um die Unterdrückten freizulassen und das Jahr der Gnade des Herrn auszurufen." - Jesus zitiert Jesaja, der Themen aus Deuteronomium 15 über Schuldenfreiheit und Fürsorge für die Armen aufgreift.
