A Tree and Its Fruit 46. The House on the Rock Do not judge The Greek word for "judge" here is "κρίνω" (krinō), which means to separate, distinguish, or make a decision.

The call is to focus on self-examination and to extend grace to others, reflecting God's mercy. and you will not be judged Do not condemn and you will not be condemned Forgive and you will be forgiven Forgive.--Better, set free, release, or acquit; the word expressing a quasi-judicial act rather than the forgiveness of a private wrong. Verse 37. - Judge not, and ye shall not be judged. Jesus would have his followers avoid one great error which was too common in the religious Jewish life of his time - the habit of censoriously judging others. This uncharitable and often untrue censorship of the motives which led to the acts of others, was one of the practices of the day which stunted and marred all true healthy religious life. Condemn not, and ye shall not be condemned. That pitiless condemnation which, regardless of circumstances, condemned as sinners beyond the pale of mercy, whole classes of their fellow-country-men, publicans, Samaritans, and the like. This haughty judgment of others in the case of the dominant sects of the Jews resulted in an undue estimate of themselves. His disciples must be very careful how they judged and condemned others; their rule must be, not condemnation, but forgiveness of others.Parallel Commentaries ...
