xxvi. 12, 13). Again, in Deut. xxiv. 17, it is not enough that we have already heard, " thou shalt not afflict them," under the awful penalty of similar affliction from the hand of God, but prohibi- tion as to the manner of that affliction is expressly pointed out. VOL. I. 9 176 THE WOMEN OF ISRAEL "Thou slialt not pervert the judgment of the stranger, nor of the FATHERLESS, nor take a widow's raiment to pledge." Why? Because they had no earthly friend to redeem the latter, or plead for the for...mer. Weak and unguarded, they were exposed to all these evils, had not the Eternal, in His tender compassion, taken them under His own especial care ; and, instead of com- pelling them to depend on the insecure tenure of man's com- passion, or even justice, instituting laws for their benefit, the disobedience of which was sin unto Himself. Had these laws been obeyed, it was impossible for the widow and the fatherless, however destitute they might have been left, to sutler mere worldly ills. The agony of the widowed wife could not be increased by the thought of how she was to pro- vide for her fatherless little ones.
