The below is a quote from James Durham on the 8th commandment; I'm having a tough time finding the intended scripture reference as Ps. 119:9 doesn't seem correct (best I've come up with is Psalm 37:21 but usually an error is at least close to the numbering given). Any ideas?
This giving of alms, rightly qualified is highly accounted of in Scripture and assigned as the mark of a righteous man (Ps. 119:9); noticed and commended in a special manner at the day of judgment (Matt. 25:30, etc.); commanded as a duty (Deut. 15:7, 11, 14, 21 and 26:11, etc.), and much pressed and insisted on (2 Cor. 8:9).
