The leading precepts of the law are here repeated to give them new force, and with many additions and illustrations, that they might be better understood. Most of these having already been explained, the reader may refer to the places by the marginal references of the bible. Leviticus 19:9. Not wholly reap.

Leviticus 19:15In righteousness shalt thou judge thy neighbour.On judging our neighbour in righteousnessTo judge our neighbour in righteousness, it is our duty to consider those motives which may corrupt our judgment.

Daniel Whedon

Whedon's Commentary on the Bible - Leviticus 19:15

15. Not respect the person of the poor From no unmanly and unjust pity shall the poor man go unwhipped of justice. To “respect the person” is to give sentence not in view of proved guilt, but in view of other considerations. The person of the mighty is honoured in the court of justice, when the verdict is so influenced by the rank, power, or the money of the accused, as to secure impunity. The scales of justice should be held evenly between all classes of men. read more
