|
Rashi's Commentary, c. 1075. chabad.org. |
| From the Geneva Notes.
 | "neither shalt thou stand against the blood of thy neighbour -- By
consenting to his death, or conspiring with the wicked." |
|
| From
Matthew Henry's
Commentary.
| "Rather rebuke him than hate him, for an injury done to thyself. We incur
guilt by not reproving; it is hating our brother. We should say, I will do him the
kindness to tell him of his faults." |
|
| From
Wesley's
Notes.
| "If thy brother hath done wrong, thou shalt neither divulge it to others,
nor hate him, and smother that hatred by sullen silence; nor flatter him therein, but
shalt freely and in love, tell him of his fault." |
|
| The Duty of Reproving
our Neighbor (Lev 19:17). Sermon by John Wesley.
| "And if we refrain from performing this office of love to any, because they
are sinners above other men, they may persist in their iniquity, but their blood will God
require at our hands." |
|
| From the
Commentary on the Whole Bible
(Jamieson, Fausset and Brown, 1871).
| "Instead of cherishing latent feelings of malice or meditating purposes of
revenge against a person who has committed an insult or injury against them, God's people
were taught to remonstrate with the offender and endeavor, by calm and kindly reason, to
bring him to a sense of his fault." |

J. David Pleins, Bible and Interpretation.
| "The P narratives and the Holiness Code together
establish a comprehensive priestly program that could hold its own against
rival claimants who cloaked their alternative efforts in terms of royal or
prophetic ideals. P does not appear to be seeking to embrace these other
elements so much as to command them." |

| "The
Holy and the Sacred," Paul S. Minear, Yale Divinity School. Theology
Today, 1990.
| "The sacred is found wherever
religion is found; the holy wherever God is present. Accordingly, it
is quite possible to consider many things as sacred but nothing as
holy, or equally possible to treat many things as holy but nothing
as sacred. Everything depends on the concept of God. Of the two
terms, theistic religions view the holy as primary, the sacred as
secondary." |

| "While the Halakha does not
concern itself with the thief/robber's motive, it does differentiate
in a most unusual way between theft and robbery." |
