na.shakh denotes charging interest in the contrast between a foreigner and a brother.

The clear attested use concerns charging interest: Deuteronomy 23:20 contrasts what may be done toward a foreigner with what must not be done toward a brother. The supplied occurrence in Deuteronomy 23:21 has the same decoded verbal morphology, but the APB's vow-and-fulfillment clause does not isolate the term's contribution.

   In Deuteronomy 23:20, the Hiphil imperfect forms occur in instructions distinguishing a foreigner from a brother; the APB renders the clause, "You may charge interest to a foreigner, but you shall not charge interest to your brother." Deuteronomy 23:21 supplies the same Hiphil imperfect morphology, though its APB rendering concerns fulfilling a vow and does not identify a corresponding English expression for this term.
