“To turn aside the needy from judgment, and to take away the right from the poor of my people, that widows may be their prey, and that they may rob the fatherless!”
Isaiah 10:2 (KJV)
Commentary on Isaiah 10:2
The purpose of unjust decrees is exposed: turning aside the needy from justice and robbing the poor of rights. 'Turn aside' suggests legal maneuvering to deny the poor access to justice. 'Take away the right' means stripping legal protections from the poor. Widows and orphans—the most vulnerable—become prey to be plundered. This reveals the depravity of using legal authority not to protect but to exploit. God especially cares for society's vulnerable; their oppression guarantees His intervention.
