Most of us don't mind getting a gift that has been re-gifted as long as it's new, in the original packaging and has never been used. But when someone tries to give us a broken, damaged, used or clearly worn item, watch out! We consider them a cheapskate. The good news is that our feelings about re-gifting allows us to understand something very important about God...something that affected the Israelites way back and that affects us Americans today.
