Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Leviticus 19:30-37

Here is, I. A law for the preserving of the honour of the time and place appropriated to the service of God, Lev. 19:30.

Sabbaths must be religiously observed, and not those times mentioned (Lev. 19:26) to which the heathen had a superstitious regard. 2. The sanctuary must be reverenced: great care must be taken to approach the tabernacle with that purity... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Leviticus 19:35

Ye shall do no unrighteousness in judgment ,.... This is repeated from Leviticus 19:15 ; and in order to lead on to some other laws and instructions; though Aben Ezra thinks this is said in connection with the preceding words, and in reference to the stranger, agreeably to Deuteronomy 1:16 ; but Jarchi refers it to what follows concerning weights and measures, and observes, that a measurer is a judge; and if he acts deceitfully, he perverts judgment, and does that which is detestable and... read more

Just balances, just weights ,.... Which were for such sort of things as were bought and sold by weight, and these were to be according to the custom and usage which universally obtained among them, or were fixed and settled by them; they were to be neither lighter nor heavier; they were not to have one sort to buy with, and another to sell with, which was not just, and was an abomination to the Lord, Proverbs 11:1 ; for "weights", it is in the original text "stones", for those were... read more

Therefore shall ye observe all my statutes, and all my judgments ,.... Delivered in this and the preceding chapters, and elsewhere, whether ceremonial or judicial, or moral, as there were of each, which had been delivered to them; and which are all comprehended in these two words, "statutes", or ordinances, which were the determinations of his sovereign will, and of mere positive institution; and "judgments", which were such laws as respected their civil or religious conduct, formed... read more

Shall ye observe all my statutes - חקתי chukkothi , from חק chak , to describe, mark, or trace out; the righteousness which I have described, and the path of duty which I have traced out. Judgments, משפטי mishpatai , from שפט shaphat , to discern, determine, direct, etc.; that which Divine Wisdom has discerned to be best for man, has determined shall promote his best interest, and has directed him conscientiously to use.

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Leviticus 19:35

Verse 35 Leviticus 19:35Ye shall do no unrighteousness in judgment. If you take the word judgment in its strict sense, this will be a special precept, that judges should faithfully do justice to all, and not subvert just causes from favor or ill-will.

For, whenever God calls Himself... read more
