Gleaning.
At the harvest and the vintage gleaning was strictly forbidden to be carried out by the owners: the residue must always he left for the poor. Leviticus 19:9, Leviticus 1:19; Leviticus 23:22; Ruth 1:2-23, etc. Gideon appeased the wrath of Ephraim by saying "Is not the gleaning of the grapes of Ephraim better than the vintage of Abi-ezer?" (Gideon's family name). Judges 8:2.
