Power without love is demonic; power with love is divine, and G-d ultimately has all power in heaven and on earth. Those who have power and used it for their own benefit, to satisfy their greed, rather than to be of service and help to others, especially to those in need. The moral aspect of their deeds is they covet, seize, and take away; they oppress a man and his house and inheritance.
The human and moral dimension of the crimes; is not just a question of houses and lands, but one of people oppressed, which was far more important. The plight of the innocent victims is when the people are treated like sheep for the slaughterhouse.
Denounced the land grabbers who prospered at the expense of the poor. There is poverty in the land, but it is an inflicted and perpetrated poverty. Unscrupulous creditors who in their own way will manipulated the economy, lending the poor while aiming to take over their land when they would be unable to pay back their debts. The defense of the rich well be that business is business, but that type of business is pure thievery. A new people of G-d will gather in cultic assembly, and the rich and the land grabbers will be excluded.
The children of the world are shrewder than the children of the light. G-d will measure the persons with the same measures they use for others. The robbers will be robbed; the oppressors will become oppressed. As the rich have plotted evil against the poor, so G-d has plotted a similar evil against the rich, namely slavery and withdrawal of their property. Evil will boomerang on the sinner.
In that coming day G-d will humiliate them; those who walk proudly, with lifted heads, will walk as prisoners in shame, as He executes judgment.
Beware and chose wisely how to run your business!
