What does the Old Testament have to say about Orphan Care:
- Psalm 10:14 But you, God, see the trouble of the afflicted; you consider their grief and take it in hand. The victims commit themselves to you; you are the helper of the fatherless.
- Isaiah 1:16-17 Wash and make yourselves clean. Take you evil deeds out of my sight; stop doing wrong. Learn to do right, seek justice. Defend the oppressed. Take up the cause of the fatherless; plead the case of the widow.
- Psalm 68: 5-6 A father to the fatherless, a defender of widows, is God in his holy dwelling. God sets the lonely in families, he leads out the prisoners with singing; but the rebellious live in a sun-scorched land.
