John Calvin—Swiss Reformer, preaching Deuteronomy—observes that prosperity does something insidious. You stop remembering your own wretchedness. You feel exempted. No longer of the common sort. And that kills compassion entirely. You forget what others endure. Some respond by locating a minor inconvenience and suggesting the genuinely suffering simply replicate their heroism. Calvin would not have been impressed.

Calvin, preaching Deuteronomy, notes that Proverbs 22:2 commands rich and poor to meet together — proximity being the mechanism by which help actually reaches people. God, apparently, considered physical nearness load-bearing. Today we prefer charitable giving at arm’s length: a click, a transfer, no eye contact. Very efficient. Entirely missing the point Calvin was making, but very efficient.

#Deuteronomy 12 famously refers to a place YHWH will choose for his cult, which scholars often take as referring to Josiah's reforms (2 Kings 23). But in Deuteronomy the verbs are future tense (יבחר).
Or are they? SamP thinks otherwise.
All 21 times where the text refers to the place which God will choose (Deut 12:5, 11, 14, 18, 21, 26; 14:23-25; 15:20; 16:2, 6-7, 11, 15-16; 17:8, 10; 18:6; 26:2; 31:11), MT imperfect יבחר corresponds to SamP perfect בחר.

Key to #Deuteronomy 16’s & 26’s demands to include the #impoverished & #disadvantaged (widows, orphans, sojourners) at festivals is to ensure that the #marginalized are seen
#SystemicPoverty thrives on making the poor the “other” and, when possible, keeping impoverished folks away from those with means/influence
These Deut statutes encourage interaction, community-building, and care
