Jones quote
editThe long quote from Jones muddies the waters. If land or property is involved, it’s hard to construe this practice as usury. But Doherty explains that over time the practice involved the exchange of a sum of money in return for periodic payments. With that, Luther’s argument makes sense.

Sharecropping
editThe Jones quote seems to describe some kind of sharecropping, where a wealthy landowner would rent out land to poor farmers. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.165.188.170 (talk) 16:10, 16 October 2019 (UTC)
