"And thou shalt remember that thou wast a bondman in the land of Egypt: therefore I command thee to do this thing."

Commentary

Gill's Exposition

might seem to be, even to glean in their fields, vineyards, and oliveyards: therefore I command thee to do this thing; to suffer the poor to take the forgotten sheaf, and to come into their oliveyards and vineyards, and gather what olives and grapes remained after the first beating of the one, and the ingathering of the other.
