“A poor man that oppresseth the poor is like a sweeping rain which leaveth no food.”
A ruler who oppresses the poor is like a driving rain that leaves no crops—a comparison of oppressive rule to destructive natural disaster, establishing that such rule produces comprehensive ruin. The theological significance involves the principle of God's particular concern for the vulnerable.
