Yes. Jesus has more compasion for the poor because they have nothing. They are very valuable because they are real people.

yes, Jesus came for the poor in spirit, in every aspect of life to the blind to the lame, crippled, lowly and to the sinners He came not to the beleivers but for the unbeleivers. to save them from thiers sins and to heal them from any sickness they may have...to fill thier hearts with holy spirit and restore them from poverty. Jesus paid us from our inequites, He died in the cross and redeem us.. thats how valuable we are to Him.

Yes, Jesus believed that lowly people are valuable as they are more humble and not selfish. They are willing to share whatever they have without holding back anything else.

Jesus befriended those that others thought unclean or people they thought were not worthy. I think it is an example of how we should treat others today. If Jesus were on earth today as he was then, I know he would reach out to the homeless, aids victims, and all the people our society puts in the catergory of being below standards so to speak. Jesus loves us all and accepts us takes us as we are into His arms....He is ready to forgive. He died for us all...

Does Jesus believe lowly people are valuable? How valuable?
Yes, Jesus believed the lowly people are valuable.It is very evident throughout his teaching.In the short span of his career, Jesus made great efforts to proclaim the poorest of poor are the most valuable souls.He knew the lowly people are innocent and their deeds are straightforward.He also taught us that the pooralways gave a share of what they had to live on while the richshared their surplus which is of not much value.

Now all the tax-gatherers and the sinners were coming near Him to listen to Him. And both the Pharisees and the scribes began to grumble, saying, "This man receives sinners and eats with them." ( Luke 15:1-2)

Then some children were brought to Him so that He might lay His hands on them and pray; and the disciples rebuked them. But Jesus said, "Let the children alone, and do not hinder them from coming to Me; for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these." ( Matthew 19:13-14)

He called the twelve and said to them, "If any one wants to be first, he shall be last of all and servant of all." And taking a child , He stood him in the midst of them; and taking him in His arms, He said to them, "Whoever receives one child like this in My name is receiving Me; and whoever receives Me is not receiving Me, but Him who sent Me." ( Mark 9:35-37)

And He sat down opposite the treasury, and began observing how the multitude were putting money into the treasury; and many rich people were putting in large sums. And a poor widow came and put in two small copper coins, which amount to a cent. And calling His disciples to Him, He said to them, "Truly I say to you, this poor widow put in more than all the contributors to the treasury; for they all put in out of their surplus, but she, out of her poverty, put in all she owned, all she had to live on." ( Mark 12:41-44)

There came a woman of Samaria to draw water. Jesus said to her, "Give Me a drink." For His disciples had gone away into the city to buy food. The Samaritan woman therefore said to Him, ‘How is it that You, being a Jew, ask me for a drink since I am a Samaritan woman?" (For Jews have no dealings with Samaritans.) ( John 4:7-9)

And it came about when He went into the house of one of the leaders of the Pharisees on the Sabbath to eat bread, that they were watching Him closely…And he went on to say to the one who had invited Him, "When you give a luncheon or a dinner, do not invite your friends or your brothers or your relatives or rich neighbors, lest they also invite you in return, and repayment come to you. But when you give a reception, invite the poor, the crippled, the lame, the blind, and you will be blessed, since they do not have the means to repay you, for you will be repaid at the resurrection of the righteous." ( Luke :-1-:1)
