Cast your bread upon the waters: for you shall find it after many days.
All Commentaries on Ecclesiastes 11:1 Go To Ecclesiastes 11
Isaac of Syria
AD 700
When you give, give generously, with a joyous countenance, and give more than you are asked for, since it is said: “Send forth thy morsel of bread toward the face of the poor man, and soon you will find your recompense.” Do not separate the rich from the poor, nor try to discriminate the worthy from the unworthy, but let all persons be equal in your eyes for a good deed.
