Context of Deuteronomy 24:10

8If you have leprosy, be very careful! Do everything that the Levite priests tell you to do. You must obey everything that I have commanded them. 9Remember what the Lord your God did to Miriam after you left Egypt.

Then your neighbour can bring out what he has chosen to give you. 12If the person is poor, do not take his coat and keep it with you all night.
