“He knows nothing; and he thinks he knows everything. That points clearly to a political career.” 
~ George Bernard Shaw

DEUTERONOMY 23-25

19When you are harvesting in your field and you overlook a sheaf, do not go back to get it. Leave it for the foreigner, the fatherless and the widow, so that the Lord your God may bless you in all the work of your hands. 20When you beat the olives from your trees, do not go over the branches a second time. Leave what remains for the foreigner, the fatherless and the widow. 21When you harvest the grapes in your vineyard, do not go over the vines again. Leave what remains for the foreigner, the fatherless and the widow. 22Remember that you were slaves in Egypt. That is why I command you to do this.

MARK 14:51-72

After a little while, those standing near said to Peter, “Surely you are one of them, for you are a Galilean.”

71He began to call down curses, and he swore to them, “I don’t know this man you’re talking about.”

72Immediately the rooster crowed the second time.^h Then Peter remembered the word Jesus had spoken to him: “Before the rooster crows twiceⁱ you will disown me three times.” And he broke down and wept.
