Matthew 7:1-2

Do Not Judge

7:1 “Do not judge so that you will not be judged. ²  7:2 For by the standard you judge you will be judged, and the measure you use will be the measure you receive. ³ 

[6:14]  ¹ tn Here ἄνθρωπος (anqrwpo") is used in a generic sense: “people, others.”

[7:1]  ² sn The point of the statement do not judge so that you will not be judged is that the standards we apply to others God applies to us. The passive verbs in this verse look to God’s action.

[7:2]  ³ tn Grk “by [the measure] with which you measure it will be measured to you.”
