Exegesis
The phrase gazul mi-yad a-shoq {גָז֖וּל מִיַּ֣ד עָשׁ֑וֹק | gā-zûl mi-yad ʿā-šōq} highlights deliverance from the oppressor.
In context — Jeremiah 22:3
Thus says the LORD : "Do justice and righteousness, and deliver the one who has been robbed from the hand of the oppressor. Do not oppress or do violence to the sojourner, the orphan , or the widow, and do not shed innocent blood in this place."
