Deuteronomy 25:16 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 25:16

For all that do such things
Keep, different weights and measures, and make use of them to defraud their neighbours in buying and selling:

[and] all that do unrighteously;
what is not just and right between man and man, in any other instance whatever:

[are] an abomination unto the Lord thy God;
both they and their actions; he is a righteous God, and loves righteousness, and hates injustice of every kind.

Deuteronomy 25:16 In-Context

14 You shall not have two differing measures in your house, one large and one small.
15 You must maintain accurate and honest weights and measures, so that you may live long in the land that the LORD your God is giving you.
16 For everyone who behaves dishonestly in regard to these things is detestable to the LORD your God.
17 Remember what the Amalekites did to you along your way from Egypt,
18 how they met you on your journey when you were tired and weary, and they attacked all your stragglers; they had no fear of God.
