The Binding Aspect Of Gifts
- A gift has certain psychological aspects attached to it, making it more than just a simple transaction.
- A gift binds the recipient to the giver, and is seen as a burden. The word ‘grateful’ can also be translated in the Hebrew language to ‘A prisoner of thankfulness’.
- A gift can also have a flavour of humiliation, like when a captive person or a hostage is provided with a cup of tea.
