Leviticus 25:36 - Clarke's commentary and critical notes on the Bible

Take thou no usury of him, or increase: but fear thy God; that thy brother may live with thee. Take thou no usury of him - Usury, at present, signifies unlawful interest for money. Properly, it means the reward or compensation given for the use of a thing, but is principally spoken of money. For the definition of the original term, See the note on Exodus 22:25.
