This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Exo_22:23 If thou afflict them in any wise, and they cry at all unto me, I will surely hear their cry;
Ver. 23. And they cry at all unto me.] A vine whose root is uncovered thrives not: so a widow, whose covering of eyes is taken away, joys not.

{a} Mercer, in Proverb.
