What does the Bible say about helping the weak?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible calls us to strengthen the weak and encourage one another in times of need, as seen in Hebrews 12:12-14.

In Hebrews 12:12-14, believers are instructed to lift up 'the hands which hang down and the feeble knees,' emphasizing the importance of mutual support among Christians. This passage encourages us to help those who are weak or feeling faint, reminding us of our collective responsibility as members of Christ's body. Helping the weak aligns with the teachings from Isaiah 35:3-4, where we are called to 'strengthen the weak hands and confirm the feeble knees.' This illustrates that charity and encouragement are foundational aspects of Christian community life.
