22:3 In like manner shalt thou do with his {c} ass; and so shalt thou do with his raiment; and with all lost thing of thy brother's, which he hath lost, and thou hast found, shalt thou do likewise: thou mayest not hide thyself.
(c) You are bound to do much more for your neighbour.
22:3 Hide thyself - Dissemble that thou hast found it. Or, hide it, that is, conceal the thing lost.
22:1-4 If we duly regard the golden rule of doing to others as we would they should do unto us, many particular precepts might be omitted. We can have no property in any thing that we find. Religion teaches us to be neighbourly, and to be ready to do all good offices to all men. We know not how soon we may have occasion for help.
