Bible Comments

That no man go beyond and defraud his brother in any matter: because that the Lord is the avenger of all such, as we also have forewarned you and testified.

Ver. 6. That no man go beyond or defraud] Or, oppress or cheat. Theft by unjust getting is either επιβολη or επιβουλη, by violence or cunning contrivance. What else is this but crimen stellionatus, criminal lizard, the very sin of deception.

The Lord is the avenger] Though haply they lie out of the walk of human justice, as not coming under man's cognizance.
