Here Christ returns to the commandments of the second Table, ⟨p. 174⟩intending to restore the same to their proper sense, and withal to confute the erroneous interpretation thereof, given by the Jewish Teachers. And first, he cometh to a particular Judicial law of Moses, pertaining to the sixth commandment, touching the Requital of like for like: in which, as in the former, he first sets down the words of the law of Moses, but yet to be understood, with the erroneous interpretation of the Scribes and Pharisees, verse 38. Then, he gives the right sense of that law, and withal confuteth the false interpretation of the Jewish teachers, v. 39, 40, 41.
