How do we know Jesus came to save the poor and brokenhearted?

In Luke 4:18, Jesus lays out His mission: to preach the gospel to the poor and heal the brokenhearted. Understanding who the 'poor' refers to is crucial; it indicates those who are spiritually bankrupt and destitute of righteousness. He identifies the brokenhearted as those who are spiritually crushed and unable to remedy their situations. This declaration emphasizes that salvation is available to those who recognize their need for grace, not to those who consider themselves self-sufficient.
