Detailed explanation-1: -When Jamestown was established in 1607, Smith trained the first settlers to farm and work, thus saving the colony from early devastation. He publicly stated “He that will not work, shall not eat", equivalent to the 2nd Thessalonians 3:10 in the Bible.
Detailed explanation-2: -He who does not work, neither shall he eat is an aphorism from the New Testament traditionally attributed to Paul the Apostle, later cited by John Smith in the early 1600s colony of Jamestown, Virginia, and by the communist revolutionary Vladimir Lenin during the early 1900s Russian Revolution.
Detailed explanation-3: -Virginians know that Captain John Smith was vital to the survival of Jamestown in its early years. They can quote his order: “He that will not worke, shall not eate.” But few know that Smith’s adventures started years before Jamestown.
