Isaiah 58:6

Context

58:6 No, this is the kind of fast I want. 1 

I want you 2  to remove the sinful chains,

to tear away the ropes of the burdensome yoke,

to set free the oppressed, 3 

and to break every burdensome yoke.

Jeremiah 34:14-15

Context
34:14 “Every seven years each of you must free any fellow Hebrews who have sold themselves to you. After they have served you for six years, you shall set them free.” 4  But your ancestors did not obey me or pay any attention to me. 34:15 Recently, however, you yourselves 5  showed a change of heart and did what is pleasing to me. You granted your fellow countrymen their freedom and you made a covenant to that effect in my presence in the house that I have claimed for my own. 6 

Hebrews 13:1-3

Context
Final Exhortations

13:1 Brotherly love must continue. 13:2 Do not neglect hospitality, because through it some have entertained angels without knowing it. 7  13:3 Remember those in prison as though you were in prison with them, 8  and those ill-treated as though you too felt their torment. 9
