In Parshat Ki Teitzei it says:
When you reap your harvest in your field and forget a sheaf in the field, do not go back to take it.
(Devarim 24:19)
Most mitzvot begin with intention.  "You forgot."
How can forgetting count as giving? Read this week's WOW:

Instead, it unfolds in four stages.
Why all the extra steps? Why doesn’t the Torah go straight to “Give”?

In Parshat Shelach, the spies describe themselves as tiny compared to the inhabitants of the Land: “We were like grasshoppers in our own eyes.” But then they add: “And so we were in their eyes.”

How could the spies know what the giants thought?
