Give to everyone who begs from you, and from one who takes away your goods do not demand them back.
Luke 6:30. To every one that asketh of thee. The same words, as we shall presently see, are found in Matthew: for it may readily be inferred from the context, that Luke does not here speak of a request to obtain assistance, but of actions at law, which bad men raise for the purpose of carrying off the property of others.
Hear what Christ says to all who will listen: we must render to every person their due, be just in all dealings, and put ourselves in others' stead. Give freely to those who need what you have to spare, and forgive generously those who have wronged you rather than fight for your rights.

Commenting on Luke 6:27-36
And as ye would that men should do to you,.... In matters of justice and beneficence were they in your case, and you in theirs; do ye also to them likewise: a golden rule this, agreeably to the light of nature, and divine revelation, and is the sum and substance of the law and prophets; See Gill on Mat 7:12.
