Saying: When will the month be over, and we shall sell our wares: and the sabbath, and we shall open the corn: that we may lessen the measure, and increase the sicle, and may convey in deceitful balances,
You say, “When will the first day of the month be over, so we can sell our wares, and the Sabbath, so we can open the grain: in order that we may decrease the measure, and increase the price, and substitute deceitful scales,1
- 8:5The word ‘mensis’ in this context does not mean ‘month,’ instead it refers to the first day of the month, which in ancient Israel was considered holy, like the Sabbath, and on which one could not work, buy, or sell. The word ‘siclum’ literally means ‘shekel,’ but the meaning is that the price would increase.(Conte)
