Commentaire sur Amos 2:8
וְעַל־בְּגָדִ֤ים חֲבֻלִים֙ יַטּ֔וּ אֵ֖צֶל כָּל־מִזְבֵּ֑חַ וְיֵ֤ין עֲנוּשִׁים֙ יִשְׁתּ֔וּ בֵּ֖ית אֱלֹהֵיהֶֽם׃
Ils s’étendent, près de chaque autel, sur des vêtements pris en gage, et le vin provenant des amendes, ils le boivent dans le temple de leurs dieux.
Rashi on Amos
And they recline on pledged garments—Jonathan renders: On couches of a pledge they dine. They settle [the charge as] a loan upon the poor. and they take a pledge from them, and make their garments into couches and recline on them at the time of their meal.
