Exegetical and Hermeneutical Commentary of Deuteronomy 23:16
He shall dwell with thee, [even] among you, in that place which he shall choose in one of thy gates, where it liketh him best: thou shalt not oppress him.
Taking advantage from his low and afflicted condition to be unreasonable or injurious to him.

He shall dwell in thee, [even] among you,…. This seems to confirm the sense of it, being a stranger, a: proselyte servant that is here spoken of, since the law provides for his dwelling among the Israelites:
in that place he shall choose, in one of thy gates, where it liketh him best: he was not to be detained by the person that took him up in his own house, or be obliged to dwell in any certain place under, a restraint, but he might take up his abode in any of the cities of Israel, which would be most for his good, profit, and advantage:
thou shalt not oppress him; by words, as the Targum of Jonathan adds,
“calling him a fugitive servant, or by any opprobrious name.”
