“Every proud man is an abomination to the Lord: though hand should be joined to hand, he is not innocent. The beginning of a good way is to do justice; and this is more acceptable with God, than to offer sacrifices.”

“Hand. And he seems to be very quiet, chap. xi. 21. Septuagint, “but he who putteth his hand in hands unjustly, to make a contract, is,” &c. — The, &c., is taken from the Roman Septuagint and occurs before, chap. xv. 27.”
