John Trapp on Job 24:3

Verſe 3 They drive away the Aſſe of the fatherleſſe] The only Aſſe of Orphans, thoſe helpleſſe, ſhiftleſſe creatures, ſo mercileſſe are theſe abigei, which is no ſmall aggravation of their injuſtice, (ſee 2 Samuel 12.3) For all ſinnes are not equal, as the Stoicks once held, but lighter or heavier according to their circumſtances. To rob the rich is a great offence, but to pillage the poor is far greater.

They take the widows Ox for a pledge] Without which the cannot plough: or. Her Cow, as ſome render it, without which the and her children cannot live. A poor bodies livelyhood is his life (as that poor widowes was, Mark 12.44. [non-Latin text not transcribed] and the like is ſaid of the Haemorrhoiſſe, Luke 8.43) cruſh this ſnail in his ſhel, and you kill him. Now therefore albeit it be not unlawful to take a pledge for ſecurity in ſome caſes; yet courteſie muſt be uſed, and mercy muſt be ſhewed to Orphans, Widowes, Strangers, and ſuch like, becauſe they are Gods Clients, and he hath taken them into his ſpecial care and tuition.
