THE SAINT LOUIS JEWISH LOAN SOCIETY

Providing Interest-Free Loans

When you lend money to My people, ... , do not act toward him as a creditor; do not lay interest upon him. Exodus 22:24

 

R’Abba said in the name of R’Shimon ben Lakish: A lender is greater than one who gives charity, and one who puts [working capital] in the pocket is more [outstanding] than them all.  Shabbos 63a
