Ezekiel 18:7
_ _ restored ... pledge — that which the poor debtor absolutely needed; as his raiment, which the creditor was bound to restore before sunset (Exodus 22:26, Exodus 22:27), and his millstone, which was needed for preparing his food (Deuteronomy 24:6, Deuteronomy 24:10-13).
_ _ bread to ... hungry ... covered ... naked — (Isaiah 58:7; Matthew 25:35, Matthew 25:36). After duties of justice come those of benevolence. It is not enough to refrain from doing a wrong to our neighbor, we must also do him good. The bread owned by a man, though “his,” is given to him, not to keep to himself, but to impart to the needy. |
