Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 18. - The third regulation. The prince in all cases should endow his sons (or others) out of his own, and not out of his subjects' possessions, of which they have been violently robbed. A good rule for other princes besides this, and for owners of property in general

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(18) Shall not take of the people's inheritance.--Fresh warning is here given against oppression on the part of the prince, and he is reminded that the territory given inalienably to him and his heirs is to provide for his sons' inheritance.
