Deuteronomy 10:18 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 10:18

He doth execute the judgment of the fatherless and widow
Who have none to help them, and whose patron and defender he is, and will do them justice himself, and take care that it is done them by others, or avenge their injuries, for he is a Father of the fatherless, and a judge of the widow, in his holy habitation; ( Psalms 68:5 )

and loveth the stranger, in giving him food and raiment;
one that is in a foreign country, at a distance from his native land, and destitute of friends; such God in his providence takes care of, and expresses his love and kindness to, by giving them the necessaries of life, food, and raiment.

Deuteronomy 10:18 In-Context

16 So circumcise your hearts and stop being so stubborn,
17 because the LORD your God is the God of all gods and Lord of all lords, the great, mighty, and awesome God who doesn't play favorites and doesn't take bribes.
18 He enacts justice for orphans and widows, and he loves immigrants, giving them food and clothing.
19 That means you must also love immigrants because you were immigrants in Egypt.
20 Revere the LORD your God, serve him, cling to him, swear by his name alone!
