11 Want de arme zal niet ophouden uit het midden des lands; daarom gebiede ik u, zeggende: Gij zult uw hand mildelijk opendoen aan uw broeder, aan uw bedrukten en aan uw armen in uw land.


Commentary on this verse  

By Alexander Payne

Verse 11. For the feeling of its own insufficiency and the endeavour after higher attainments will never cease in the regenerating soul; therefore it is the Lord's will that the soul should endeavour with all its powers to satisfy those spiritual aspirations of the soul, when it feels its deficiency of truth and desires more, and when it feels its own evil and seeks after good.
