“In Parshas Re’eh when the Torah commands that one give charity it says, naton titain, which literally means ‘give you shall give.’ The redundant wording teaches us that if a person gave charity out of feelings of mercy and compassion he must give again altruistically. It was for that reason that I called you back, so that I could give you that second coin purely out of a desire to help a fellow Jew.”

There’s giving and then there’s giving!
