Dear all, Peng An,
It seemed that all three of you would agree on a watering down interpretation on the interest-generation loan.
I just wanted to remind you that in the Bible, there were many similar very radical and extreme descriptions, such as in Mt 5:29-30. Some would try to use cultural background to historicalize or localize the description. Some would try to limit the application of these descriptions to some special groups of people, some would try to spiritualize them.
As for the high interest usury, you might want to check the following urls,

The Nehemiah case might be a relevant one. (Nehemiah 5:6-13)
