Of charity When you lend anything The act of lending in ancient Israel was not merely a financial transaction but a moral and communal duty. The Hebrew root for "lend" is "lavah," which implies a sense of joining or binding together. This reflects the interconnectedness of the community, where lending was an act of support and solidarity. Lending was often done without interest, especially among fellow Israelites, as a way to ensure that the community thrived together. This principle underscores the importance of generosity and compassion in financial dealings, reminding us that our resources are ultimately God's provision to be shared with others. to your neighbor do not enter his house to collect security It shall be righteousness.--LXX., it shall be alms, or mercy. In other words, "Blessed are the merciful, for they shall obtain mercy." Verses 10-13. - If one had to take a pledge from another, he was not to go into the house of the latter and take what he thought fit; he must stand without, and allow the debtor to bring to him what he saw meet to offer. He might stand outside and summon the debtor to produce his pledge, but he was not insolently to enter the house and lay hands on any part of the owner's property. To stand outside and call is still a common mode of seeking access to a person in his own house or apartment among the Arabs, and is regarded as the only respectful mode. There would be thus a mitigation of the severity of the exaction, the tendency of which would be to preserve good feeling between the parties. If the debtor was needy, and being such could give in pledge only some necessary article, such as his upper garment in which he slept at night, the pledge was to be returned ere nightfall, that the man might sleep in his own raiment, and have a grateful feeling towards his creditor. In many parts of the East, with the Arabs notably, it is customary for the poor to sleep in their outer garment. "During the day the poor while at work can and do dispense with this outside raiment, but at night it is greatly needed, even in summer. This furnishes a good reason why this sort of pledge should be restored before night" (Thomson, 'Land and the Book,' 1:192, 500). The earlier legislation (Exodus 22:25, 26) is evidently assumed here as well known by the people. It shall be righteousness unto thee (see on Deuteronomy 6:25).Parallel Commentaries ...
