Tell your friend to read the instruction manual. It ain't anti-semitic, it's anti Jewishness... Can I find the laws of usury in the Old Testament? by Rabbi Naftali Silberberg Certainly. The Torah discusses the prohibition against taking interest in many places: Exodus 22:24; Leviticus 25:36-37; and Deuteronomy 23:20-21. (See also Ezekiel 18:8-17; 22:12; Psalms 15:5; and Proverbs 28:8). As is the case with most laws of the Torah, to gain a full understanding of the laws of ribit (usury) it is necessary to study the topic as it is explained on the Oral Law. The laws of ribit are discussed at length in the Code of Jewish Law, Yoreh De'ah 159-177 askmoses.com
