P. 10, 1.87.—“for taking stretches out the hands, but for giving draws them in”] Graphic description of taking and giving.

P. 10, 1.88.—“by thy hands thou shalt give a ransom for they sins”] Beneficence is better than sacrifice. See Prov. xvii.6, “By mercy and truth iniquity is purged.”

P. 10, 1.98—“thy slave”] As in the New Testament, so here, the relation of master and slave is not denounced, but regulated.
