Read in Logos

Footnotes

  1. 33 The verb means “to give recognition; to take note of” and in this passage with לִפְנֵי (lifne, “before”) it means to show preferential treatment to the rich before the poor. The word for “rich” here is an unusual word, found parallel to “noble” (Isa 32:2). P. thinks it is a term of social distinction ( 18 [1937]: 207–8).
