200 - PAYING WAGES ON TIME
Deuteronomy 24:15 -- “Each day you shall give him his wages, and not let the sun go down on it, for he is poor and has set his heart on it; lest he cry out against you to the LORD, and it be sin to you.”
“The Law further ordains merciful conduct towards hired workmen because of their poverty. Their wages should be paid without delay, and they must not be denied any of their rights; they must receive according to their work.”*
* Moreh Nebuchim III, 42
