He that putteth not out his money to usury In such a manner as is contrary to God's law, of which see on Exodus 22:25; Leviticus 25:36. Or taketh reward Or bribe, from him who hath a bad cause; that he may condemn the innocent or acquit the guilty: both which things God abhors. He that doeth these things Here enumerated, in consequence of first having faith working by love, in consequence of the justification of his person and the renovation of his nature; he that, being made a tree of righteousness, thus glorifies God by bearing the fruit of righteousness, and being created anew, in Christ Jesus, unto good works, thus steadily and perseveringly walks in them; he shall never be moved But shall abide with God, in his favour and family here, and shall dwell with him for ever hereafter.
