Gill's Exposition of the Entire Bible

For all that do such things,.... Keep, different weights and measures, and make use of them to defraud their neighbours in buying and selling:

are an abomination unto the Lord thy God; both they and their actions; he is a righteous God, and loves righteousness, and hates injustice of every kind.
