Contextual Overview

⁶ When I heard their complaints about these things, I was very angry. ⁷ After I thought about it, I accused the important people and the leaders, "You are charging your own brothers too much interest." So I called a large meeting to deal with them. ⁸ I said to them, "As much as possible, we have bought freedom for our fellow Jews who had been sold to foreigners. Now you are selling your fellow Jews to us!" The leaders were quiet and had nothing to say. ⁹ Then I said, "What you are doing is not right. Don't you fear God? Don't let our foreign enemies shame us. ¹⁰ I, my brothers, and my men are also lending money and grain to the people. But stop charging them so much for this. ¹¹ Give back their fields, vineyards, olive trees, and houses right now. Also give back the extra amount you charged—the hundredth part of the money, grain, new wine, and oil." ¹² They said, "We will give it back and not demand anything more from them. We will do as you say." Then I called for the priests, and I made the important people and leaders take an oath to do what they had said. ¹³ Also I shook out the folds of my robe and said, "In this way may God shake out everyone who does not keep his promise. May God shake him out of his house and out of the things that are his. Let that person be shaken out and emptied!" Then the whole group said, "Amen," and they praised the Lord . So the people did what they had promised.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And I was very angry when I heard their cry, and these words. Their complaint expressed in this manner; it not only raised pity and compassion in his breast towards these poor distressed people, but indignation at the rich that oppressed them.
