Kretzmann's Popular Commentary

Deuteronomy 10:18

He doth execute the judgment of the fatherless and widow, those whose natural protector has been taken from them, and loveth the stranger, one likely to be subjected to oppression, in giving him food and raiment. This example of God's compassionate love is held before the people for a special reason.
