“Our masters taught; loving-kindness is greater than charity in three ways.  Charity is done with one’s money, while loving-kindness may be done with one’s money or with one’s person. Charity is done only to the poor, while loving-kindness may be given to both the poor and to the rich. Charity is given only to the living,while loving-kindness may be shown to the living and to the dead.” (Sukka 49b)

Thank You.
