Thematic Bible: Not laying usury upon your brother


Thematic Bible



If you lend money to any of my people who is poor among you, you shall not be to him as a lender, neither shall you charge him interest.

You shall not charge interest to your brother; interest on money, interest on food, interest on anything that is lent for interest: Unto a stranger you may lend for interest; but unto your brother you shall not lend for interest: that the LORD your God may bless you in all that you set your hand to in the land where you go to possess it.

And if your brother becomes poor, and falls into poverty among you; then you shall help him: yea, though he be a stranger, or a sojourner; that he may live with you. Take you no interest from him, or profit: but fear your God; that your brother may live with you. You shall not lend him your money at interest, nor lend him your food for profit. read more.
I am the LORD your God, who brought you forth out of the land of Egypt, to give you the land of Canaan, and to be your God.
