Deuteronomy 22

what I remember:
If you see someone in need of help (a lost animal, for example), then help them (return the animal).  We should even be kind to wildlife.  No mistreating wives.  (But if you take one and discover that she isn't a virgin, then she can be stoned). 
Rape in the country->man dies.  Rape in the city->both die, because the woman should have cried out for help.

key verse:
You shall not see your brother’s ox or his sheep going astray, and hide yourself from them; you shall certainly bring them back to your brother. 

 about God:
living in a God community required helping each other out a lot, and protecting each others animals and wives, I guess.
