Luke 10:7
בְּאוֹתוֹ הַבַּיִת הִשָּׁאֲרוּ, וְאִכְלוּ וּשְׁתוּ מִמַּה שֶּׁיֵּשׁ אֶצְלָם, כִּי רָאוּי הַפּוֹעֵל לִשְׂכָרוֹ. אַל תַּעַבְרוּ מִבַּיִת לְבַיִת.
The concept of “Go not from house to house” from Luke 10:7, where Yeshua instructs his disciples to stay in one house and eat and drink what is provided, does not have a direct parallel in the Torah. However, there are related principles regarding hospitality, contentment, and the importance of maintaining good relationships with one’s hosts. For example, in Genesis 18, we see an example of hospitality when Abraham warmly welcomes three visitors and provides them with food and rest. This passage emphasizes the value of hospitality and caring for guests, which is a recurring theme in the Torah. Another related concept is found in Deuteronomy 24:10-13, which includes commands about lending and the proper treatment of one’s neighbor, reflecting the importance of fairness, respect, and maintaining good relationships within the community. While the specific instruction of not moving from house to house is unique to the context of Yeshua sending out his disciples, the Torah contains broader teachings on hospitality, respect for others, and contentment, which resonate with the underlying principles of Yeshua’s instruction. This is how Yeshua taught Torah, the Torah has not passed away!
