He sent the rich away empty handed.

The person who feels the emptiness of hunger for God is the opposite of the self-sufficient person. In this sense, rich means the proud, rich means even the poor who have no property but who think they need nothing, not even God. This is the wealth that is abominable in Gods eyes, what the humble but forceful Virgin speaks of: He sent away empty-handed the rich those who think they have everything and filled with good things the hungry those who have need of God. (Luke 1:53.) December 3, 1978
