Deuteronomy 25:13-16 One Heavy and One Light

 13You shall not have two differing weights in your bag, one heavy and one light. 14You shall not have two differing measures in your house, one large and one small.

15You must maintain accurate and honest weights and measures, so that you may live long in the land that the LORD your God is giving you. 16For everyone who behaves dishonestly in regard to these things is detestable to the LORD your God.


Recently my spouse went shopping at GFS for boneless pork butt on sale for $1.69 per pound and the sale price was marked on the cooler. The label on the pork butt stated 8.8 pounds @ $1.89 per pound but when the clerk rang it up, the register displayed 9.8 lbs @ $1.69 per pound. She said that’s not right and asked for the manager. She asked him to weigh it and the label was correct @ 8.8 pounds and received it at the sale price of $1.69 per pound. 

Was this intentional? The Lord only knows but the label, bar code and register were differing weights, one heavy and one light.


Are your scales honest?

Blessings
