What is the meaning of "va'Yimalach Libi Alai"?
Rashi: I counseled my heart. Ibn Ezra - the Targum of "I'atzecha" is Amalchinach.
Malbim #1: My heart was clothed with a spirit of kingship and authority, lest I be partial to the Chorim and Seganim (not rebuke them enough).
Malbim #2: My heart, which is the power of authority in the Nefesh, ruled over me. I did not quarrel with them amidst my anger, rather, amidst arousal of Tzedek and straightness.
Why did he quarrel with the Chorim and Seganim?
Rashi: They are the rich.
What was the charge "Masa Ish b'Achiv Atem Noshim"?
Rashi: Why do you do so? You should have financed the poor. Rather, you lend 1 to them, to seize their sons, daughters, fields, vineyards and houses!
Malbim: How do you act like creditors towards the borrowers? "Lo Sihyeh Lo k'Nosheh Lo Sesimun Alav Neshech"! He mentioned the Torah's commands against pressing for payment 2 and Ribis, and to return securities.
Why did he put a great congregation against them?
Rashi: It was to scream at them, to shame them.
Malbim: Via the quarrel, many people gathered against them.
