Matthew Poole and continuators on Deuteronomy 15:9

9 Beware that there be not a thought in thy wicked heart , saying, The seventh year, the year of release is at hand, and thine eye be evil against thy poor brother, and thou givest him nought, and he cry unto the LORD against thee, and it be sin unto thee.

Suppress the first risings and inward motions of such uncharitableness.

(i. e.) Envious, unmerciful, unkind, as this phrase is used Prov. 23. 6. Matth. 20. 15. as a good eye notes the contrary disposition, Prov. 22. 9.

(i. e.) It be charged upon thee as a sin, and as a great sin, as the word sin sometimes signifies, as Prov. 24. 9. Iohn 15. 24. Iam. 4. 17.
