Why 1  do you see the speck 2  in your brother’s eye, but fail to see 3  the beam of wood 4  in your own?

NET Notes

1 tn Here δέ (de) has not been translated.

2 sn The term translated speck refers to a small piece of wood, chaff, or straw; see L&N 3.66.

3 tn Or “do not notice.”

4 sn The term beam of wood refers to a very big piece of wood, the main beam of a building, in contrast to the speck in the other’s eye (L&N 7.78).
