This is the “Charity Chapter” in the Bible. Charity specifically refers to the love that we have toward other men.
We are to care for our brothers and sisters in the Lord. No man is an island (Romans 14:7). We are to bear one another’s burdens (Galatians 6:2). Certainly, we are not to take financial advantage of other in their times of need.
The Levitical sacrificial system had five separate and distinct offerings that could be made to the Lord.
It is not enough that the offering is brought; it must be acceptable to God. God must receive it.

If that is true then we ought to be able to look at the characteristics of the head in scripture and find that it points to some characteristics of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. Let’s take a look at some of these and see if we can see Jesus.
