Gill's Notes on the Bible
To subvert a man in his cause,.... A poor man, as the Targum, which aggravates it; as by courses and methods taken in an open court, so by secret underhand ways, to get the cause from him, and injure him in his property:
the Lord approveth not; or, "seeth not" g; which some understand as spoken by wicked men, who do the above things, and flatter themselves that God sees not, and takes no notice of them, Ezekiel 9:9; and others read it interrogatively, "doth not the Lord see?" h he does; he sees all the actions of men, nothing is hid from him; but he sees not with approbation; he do not look upon such things with delight and pleasure, but with abhorrence, Habakkuk 1:13. The Targum is,
"is it possible that it should not be revealed before the Lord?''
g ×× ×¨×× "non vidit, vel videt", Pagninus, Montanus, Calvin. h "Non videret?" Piscator.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Neither does God approve of wanton cruelty inflicted by one man on another. Three examples are given: the treatment of prisoners of war; the procuring an unjust sentence before a legal tribunal acting in the name of God (see Exodus 21:6); and the perversion of justice generally.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 36. To subvert a man in his cause — To prevent his having justice done him in a lawsuit, &c., by undue interference, as by suborning false witnesses, or exerting any kind of influence in opposition to truth and right.-Blayney.
The Lord approved not. — Instead of ××× × Adonai, seventeen MSS., of Kennicott's, and one ancient of my own, have ×××× Yehovah. Approveth not, ×× ×¨×× lo raah, doth not see, turns away his face from it, abhors it.
