"Take thou no usury of him, or increase: but fear thy God; that thy brother may live with thee."
Commentary
Gill's Exposition
Take thou no usury of him, or increase,.... Not only give him somewhat for his present relief, but lend him money to put him in a way of business, to
get his living for the future, without requiring any interest for it; See Gill on Exo 22:25 , but fear thy God; who has given this command, and expects to be obeyed; and who is good, and does good, and should be feared for his goodness' sake; and is omniscient, and knows what is secretly exacted, and will not suffer any exorbitance of this kind to pass unpunished: that thy brother may live with thee; which it would be still more difficult for him to do, should usury and increase be taken of him.
