'Collateral' in the Bible
There were others who said, "We are putting up our fields, our vineyards, and our houses as collateral in order to obtain grain during the famine."
I considered these things carefully and then registered a complaint with the wealthy and the officials. I said to them, "Each one of you is seizing the collateral from your own countrymen!" Because of them I called for a great public assembly.
Even I and my relatives and my associates are lending them money and grain. But let us abandon this practice of seizing collateral!
They stretch out on clothing seized as collateral; they do so right beside every altar! They drink wine bought with the fines they have levied; they do so right in the temple of their God!
