Deuteronomy 10:18 - Joseph Benson’s Commentary on the Old and New Testaments

Bible Comments

The judgment of the fatherless He is so far from disregarding those who are unbefriended, that he regards them the more on that account, takes their case under his special cognizance, and is particularly displeased with those who injure and oppress them. Nay, he executes their judgment, pleads their cause, and maintains their right against their potent adversaries, and therefore he expects that you should do so too. Even the compassion which he has implanted in the human breast for the oppressed and destitute, and which is his voice to men, calling upon them to protect the orphan, to assist the widow, and to relieve the necessitous, is one evidence, among many others, that he espouses their cause.

Deuteronomy 10:18

18 He doth execute the judgment of the fatherless and widow, and loveth the stranger, in giving him food and raiment.
