Talmud su Levitico 25:35

“What is increase?” It was stated¹²Babli 72a, Bava qamma 30b, Bava batra 94b; Yerushalmi Giṭṭin 4:4 (Notes 129,130), Pesaḥim 2:2 (29a l. 38).: A Jew who lent to another Jew with interest can collect neither principal¹³Not as a matter of biblical law but as a fine. For him, the court will refuse to look at a document containing a stated rate of interest which therefore becomes barred from any action needing the sanction of a court. nor interest, the words of Rebbi Meïr. But the Sages say, he may collect the capital but not the interest. ¹⁴Babli 60b. It is written: “Your money you shall not give him by biting¹⁵The reference includes the second half of Lev. 25:36, “and against increase do not give your food.”.” Not only money by biting and food by increase. From where increase in money and biting in food? The verse says, “do not take from him biting and increase,¹⁶Lev. 25:35, “and fear your God, I am the Eternal.” This establishes the prohibition of stated interest as a moral imperative, subject to the jurisdiction of Heaven, not the human court. The argument identifies תַּרְבִּית in v. 35 and מַרְבִּית in v. 36.” it brackets biting with increase and increase with biting. Since biting refers to money, increase also refers to money; since increase refers to food, biting also refers to food¹⁷In each case every instance of taking stated interest is two sins by one action..
