Abstract: Fl-Ebrajk insibu diversi kliem li jfssru l-kelma ‘faqar’, fost dawn insibu: ebhyon, dal, rush, chelekhah. Fil-Grieg insibu l-kelma ‘ptochoi’ ghall-foqra. Insibu ukoll fl-Ebrajk ilkelma ‘anaw’, plural ‘anawim’, li gejja mill-verb ‘anah’, li jfisser ‘tghawweg ‘l isfel’ jew ‘titghawweg’, ghaliex dawk li huma fqar u batuti minhabba s-sewwa huma tassew qaddejja umli ta’ Alla. Ghalhekk l-‘anawim’ huma dawk il-fqar li jbatu u jitolbu b’qalb umli, u huma msejha fl-Antik Testment bhala ‘il-foqra ta’ Jahweh’: “il-fqir jidher bhala l-habib u l-qaddej ta’ Jahweh” (Salm 86:1). L-idea kienet mela li l-ghani mhux inklinat li jirrikorri ghand Alla ghax ma jonqsu xejn, waqt li l-fqir mahqur ihares lejn Alla.
