More explanation about New Covenant Literal Application
The New Covenant Literal Application Code (NCLA) is an interpretive guide used by the authors to indicate which person categories a mitzvah applies to, and at what level of literal compliance.
It combines person categories such as Jewish, K'rov Yisrael, and Gentile, together with male/female distinctions and an application level such as mandated, recommended, optional, or prohibited.
This code reflects the authors' interpretive opinion and is provided for prayerful consideration. On this page, the technical code is summarized into plain language to help new readers understand it more easily.
Detailed codes: GFm - Gentile female, mandated | GMm - Gentile male, mandated | JFm - Jewish female, mandated | JMm - Jewish male, mandated | KFm - K'rovat Yisrael female, mandated | KMm - K'rov Yisrael male, mandated

Commentary
Rabbi Michael Rudolph
Being hospitable is treating a person who visit us or dwells with us with kindness and consideration. Being welcoming is related but not the same. We can be hospitable to a person and even say “Welcome!,” but he is not really welcome if our show of hospitality has no joy and is out of obligation only. Being truly welcoming means that we are happy that the person is with us, and are happy to show him hospitality.
