Leviticus25:35
35 And if thy brother be waxen poor, and fallen in decay with thee, then thou shalt relieve him , yea though he be a stranger, or a sojourner , that he may live with thee.
Heb. his hand [illegible: 1 word] or faileth or is decayed, so that he hath not power to get or keep wealth, as the phrase is, Deut. 8. 18. as on the contrary, when a man is able, his hand is said to attain and find sufficiency, as here above, ver. 26.
Heb. strengthen him, comfort his Heart, and strengthen his Hand.
Understand it of Proselytes onely, for of other strangers they were permitted to take usury, Deut. 23. 20.
