Charles Ellicott Commentary
"Love ye therefore the sojourner; for ye were sojourners in the land of Egypt." — Deuteronomy 10:19 (ASV)
For you were strangers. —“The blemish which is upon yourself you shall not notice in your neighbor” (Rashi). The provision made for the stranger throughout the Old Testament Scriptures has another cause besides: For I was a stranger, and you gathered me in. (See a Sermon on “The Stranger” in Silver Sockets, and other Shadows of Redemption.)
