9 ונגשה יבמתו אליו לעיני הזקנים וחלצה נעלו מעל רגלו וירקה בפניו וענתה ואמרה ככה יעשה לאיש אשר לא־יבנה את־בית אחיו׃


Commentary on this verse  

By Alexander Payne

Verse 9. Then shall this apparent good be rejected from the interiors by natural truth, under the guidance of the wisdom of the Church, as something that has no connection with practical life; and thus all apparent good shall be spurned and rejected that will not flow forth into deeds of charity, and become conducive to mutual love in the outer life.
