Passages readers commonly bring to a story like this, shown with their surrounding context.
Hebrews 13:3
Ethical application · WEBRemember those who are in bonds, as bound with them; and those who are ill-treated, since you are also in the body.
A reader might connect this command to remember prisoners and the ill-treated with an office devoted to international religious freedom. The connection offers an ethical measure for the nominee’s future service, not a claim about prophetic fulfillment or God’s timetable.
Read the surrounding context (Hebrews 13:1-3)
Let brotherly love continue. Don’t forget to show hospitality to strangers, for in doing so, some have entertained angels without knowing it. Remember those who are in bonds, as bound with them; and those who are ill-treated, since you are also in the body.
This interpretation is debated. Some Christians read the verse chiefly as a call to remember imprisoned believers, while others apply it more broadly to all prisoners and mistreated people.
