Exodus 23:6

Exodus 23:6. Thou shalt not wrest the judgment of thy poor in his cause— The poor, is emphatic; and designed to enforce the observation of this law, which enjoins the impartial administration of justice to the poor, as well as to the rich; to the stranger, as well as to the native Israelite, Exodus 23:9. See Deuteronomy 16:18-19; Deuteronomy 24:17-18; Deuteronomy 27:19.
