Eleazar b. Pedat was himself exceedingly poor and fre- quently sang the praises of charity. For a collection of his sayings on the subject, see Jewish Ency. S. V. Eleazar II.
64 LIBERAL JUDAISM AND SOCIAL SERVICE "Reject not the supplication of the afflicted, Neither turn away thy face from a poor man. " (4 :4) .
"Fail not to be with them that weep, And mourn with them that mourn.
Be not slow to visit the sick.
For that shall make thee to be beloved" (7:34-35).
"My son, blemish not thy good dee
...ds, Neither use uncomfortable words when thou givest anything" (18:15).
"Lo, is not a word better than a gift, But both are with a gracious man" (18:17). All this teaching was repeated and emphasized by the sages of Talmud and Midrash. In particular, it was a favorite thought that a gracious word is as essential as a gracious deed. 18 In the book of Tobit, probably written in the second century B. C, great stress is laid on the meritoriousness of almsgiving. The following passage is characteristic: "Give alms of thy substance ; and when thou givest alms, let not thine eye be envious, neither turn thy face from any poor, and the face of God shall not be turned away from thee.
