Leave a little, Kedoshim 19:9 Gleanings | ChaiDomains.com

Leave a little, Kedoshim 19:9 Gleanings | ChaiDomains.com: "east consider the following sentence of Torah which Kedoshim 19:10 which explains ” not to pick the undeveloped twigs nor gather the fallen fruit but to leave them for the poor and the convert” Hashem reminds us in this same pusek (sentence of Torah) that He is Hashem our G-d. (Our esteemed seder hostess for ths 1st Seder night, told us that this phrase is often used in Torah pesukim that are either difficult to keep or important.

Once again the common explanation is that these things are left for the poor (like charity or tzedaka) and explanations regarding how Ruth (the famous convert that we read about on Shavuos) was able to survive because of the kindness of Boaz who was meticulous in this Mitzvah (Torah commandment). Ruth because of her dedication over and beyond expectations was to have a King descend from her, David Hamelech. (Yes the same David who conquered Goliath of the Davidic Dynasty who’s lineage our future Moshiach is suppose to descend form)."
