Matthew Poole and continuators on Ezekiel 18:12

12 Hath oppressed the poor and needy, hath spoiled by violence, hath not restor'd the pledge, and hath lift up his eyes to the Idols, hath committed abomination,

Vid. on ver. 7.

In the seventh verse the words are more large, condemning the oppressing of any one; here they do more particularly condemn oppressing the poor, which have little to maintain, and less to defend themselves, and needy is added to render us more sensible of the greatness of this sin, which takes away Right where we should shew Charity.

See ver. 7. let. r.
