Kommentar zu Mischlej 28:8
מַרְבֶּ֣ה ה֭וֹנוֹ בְּנֶ֣שֶׁךְ ובתרבית [וְתַרְבִּ֑ית] לְחוֹנֵ֖ן דַּלִּ֣ים יִקְבְּצֶֽנּוּ׃
Wer seine Substanz durch Interesse und Wachstum vermehrt, sammelt sie für den, der den Armen gnädig ist.
Rashi on Proverbs
He who increases his riches with usury and interest...for him who is gracious to the poor The government hears about him, that he is becoming wealthy by illegal means, and they confiscate his money, with which they build bridges and repair highways. This is being gracious to the poor. In this manner, Rabbi Tanhuma expounded on it.
