Proverbs 3:28 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

The former verse forbade the denial, and this forbids the delay of this duty. Unto thy neighbour; unto any man, as the word neighbor is commonly used in Scripture, as hath been oft proved. I will give, to wit, what is thy due, in manner before expressed, or what thou needest; for this word is generally used concerning free or charitable gifts, and not concerning due debts.

Proverbs 3:28

28 Say not unto thy neighbour, Go, and come again, and to morrow I will give; when thou hast it by thee.
