Moses once begged the Lord God of Israel on Sinai, "O Lord, Thou hast so greatly honored me in making me Thy messenger, if there could be any greater honor I should think it this, that Thou shouldest come to my humble abode and break bread at my table." The answer came, "Moses, with great pleasure We shall come to thy abode." Moses prepared a great feast and was waiting eagerly for God to come. There happened to pass by his door a beggar, and he said to Moses, "Moses, I am ill and weary, and I have had no food for three days and am at the point of death. Pray give me a slice of bread and save my life."
