Prohibition of Christian Establishing Prices for Merchandise of Jews
“To the Jews: No outsider to the religion of the Jews shall set prices for the Jews when merchandise is offered for sale: for it is just to assign to each man what is his own. Province-governors shall not allow, therefore, that a controller or a supervisor be appointed over you. But if someone shall dare to seize this office, except you and your leaders, then they shall hasten to repress him with the penalty imposed on a usurper of another’s property.”
