Contextual Overview

5 A man who has just married must not be sent to war or be given any other duty. He should be free to stay home for a year to make his new wife happy. 6 If someone owes you something, do not take his two stones for grinding grain—not even the upper one—in place of what he owes, because this is how the person makes a living. 7 If someone kidnaps a fellow Israelite, either to make him a slave or sell him, the kidnapper must be killed. You must get rid of the evil among you. 8 Be careful when someone has a skin disease. Do exactly what the priests, the Levites, teach you, being careful to do what I have commanded them. 9 Remember what the Lord your God did to Miriam on your way out of Egypt. 10 When you make a loan to your neighbors, don't go into their homes to get something in place of it. 11 Stay outside and let them go in and get what they promised you. 12 If a poor person gives you a coat to show he will pay the loan back, don't keep it overnight. 13 Give the coat back at sunset, because your neighbor needs that coat to sleep in, and he will be grateful to you. And the Lord your God will see that you have done a good thing.

Bible Verse Review
  from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge

deliver: Exodus 22:26, Exodus 22:27, Job 24:7, Job 24:8, Job 29:11-13, Job 31:16-20, Ezekiel 18:7, Ezekiel 18:12, Ezekiel 18:16, Ezekiel 33:15, Amos 2:8, 2 Timothy 1:16-18

the sun: Deuteronomy 24:15, 2 Corinthians 9:13, 2 Corinthians 9:14, Ephesians 4:26

in his own raiment: The raiment here referred to was most likely the same as the hyke of the Arabs, a long kind of blanket, resembling a Highland plaid, generally about six yards in length, and five or six feet broad; in which they often carry their provisions, as well as wrap themselves in, in the day, and sleep in at night, it being their only substitute for a bed. How necessary, then, it was to restore the hyke to a poor man before the going down of the sun, that he might have something to repose on, will sufficiently appear from these considerations.

shall be: Deuteronomy 6:25, Deuteronomy 15:9, Deuteronomy 15:10, Genesis 15:6, Psalms 106:30, Psalms 106:31, Psalms 112:9, Isaiah 58:8, Daniel 4:27, James 1:27, James 2:13-23

Reciprocal: Nehemiah 11:2 - blessed Job 29:13 - The blessing Job 29:14 - I put Job 31:20 - General Matthew 6:1 - alms

Gill's Notes on the Bible

In any case thou shalt deliver him the pledge again, when the sun goeth down,.... If it was a night covering, as Jarchi remarks; but if it was his day clothes, he was to return it in the morning, when the sun arose; and this was to be done every day, which resist occasion a great deal of trouble, and the pledge of little use; so that it seems as though they might as well be without it as have it, and lend freely; but the Jews say, that there was an advantage by it; for it is said in answer to such a question,

"of what profit is the pledge? by this means the debt is not released on the seventh year, (when all other debts were released, Deuteronomy 15:1) nor could the borrower dispose of his goods to his children, but payment was made from the pledge after his death m:''

now this delivery of the pledge at sun setting was ordered,

that he may sleep in his own raiment; have his night covering to sleep in, his pillow, and bolster, and bedding to lie on, and bed clothes to cover him; and indeed the clothes they wore were made in such form, as would serve for covering to sleep in at night, as well as to wear in the day; and such is the clothing of the Arabs now, which they call "hykes".

"The usual size of them (Dr. Shaw says n), is six yards long, and five or six feet broad, serving the Arab for a complete dress in the day; and as they "sleep in their raiment", it serves likewise for his bed and covering by night:''

and bless thee: for using him so mercifully and kindly, as to return him his pledge, which is so necessary to his comfortable repose in the night; and not only will he praise him, and speak well of him for it, and give him thanks; but will pray to God to bless him in soul, body, and estate, for such kindness shown him:

and it shall be righteousness unto thee before the Lord thy God; not his justifying righteousness before God, for by the deeds of the law shall no flesh living be justified in his sight; but it shall be owned and approved of as a good and righteous action, and answerable to the intention of this law, which is, that mercy should be shown to persons in distress; in which sense the word "righteousness" is sometimes used, even for a merciful action, Psalms 112:9; so alms is called

δικαιοσυνη, "righteousness", Matthew 6:1, in some copies.

m Maimon Hilchot Milvah Velovah, c. 3. sect. 5. n Travels, p. 224. Ed. 2.
