Bible Comments

Heb. honour, i.e. respect, or prefer his cause when the richer man's cause is more just: the meaning of this and the former verse is, there shall be no respect of persons, whether rich or poor, but an impartial consideration of the cause. See Leviticus 19:15 Psalms 72:1,2.

Exodus 23:3

3 Neither shalt thou countenance a poor man in his cause.
