If you think exegesis would cost you a lot of time and effort to determine the difference between the two phrases, then maybe you should do eisegesis first. 🤣
What does "lawful" mean, and can legality transform injustice into justice? How can a non-zero level of extortion ever be just? Who decides what is excessive?
I understand that the word "law" is a heavy word and its meaning varies depending on someone's worldview or set of presuppositions one perceives the world. I am speaking of law from the Judeo-Christian point of view.
As to the second part of your question, I agree with you that there is a difference between law and justice. Unfortunately, most laws are unjust and that's why human laws are made to make plunder legal thereby instead of serving justice, they become tools to make injustice institutionalized.
The government is just a mafia writ large, and the tax man is just a formal extortionist.
In my mind, I distinguish between lawful and excessive.

You might also want to distinguish between "lawfully excessive" and "excessively lawful". 😆😅

Oh! That requires a great exegete to identify the difference between the two. 🤣

Looks like you have tried eisegesis before (several times). 😄
