DEUT467 The spirit of philanthropy and consideration for others, which marks most of the provisions of the [Deuteronomic] Code, breathes also from the introductory sections of Deuteronomy. Characteristic of the entire book is the following application of the doctrine of God's impartial justice: "He doth execute justice for the fatherless and widow, and loveth the stranger, in giving him food and raiment. Love ye therefore the strangers; for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt" (Deuteronomy 10:17-19). (Continued at [[GEN65]] Genesis 1:26 likeness COHON 207-8)
