In Jewish law, the edge rows were to be left ungleaned for the poor to gather. Same with some of the grape and olives.

C.S. Lewis once remarked that a truly Christian society would have both "left" and "right" strains in it. For instance, there would be a real concern about widows and orphans. There would also be no welfare for those who can work but choose not to.

Remember, Jesus saved the repentant prostitute from stoning, and He also drove out the money changers with a whip.
