Matthew Poole and continuators on Isaiah 1:17

17 Learn to do well , seek judgment , relieve the oppressed , judge the fatherless, plead for the widow .

Begin and inure your selves to live soberly, righteously, and godlily.

Shew your Religion to God, by studying and practising Justice to Men, and neither give nor procure any unrighteous Judgment.

Be not onely just, but merciful.

Defend and deliver them, as this Word is used Psal. 7. 8, 11. & 9. 4. and oft elsewhere.

Maintain the righteous Cause of poor and helpless Persons, against their unjust and potent Adversaries; whereby you will shew your love to Justice and Mercy, and that you fear God more than Men.
