haven’t you made distinctions between yourselves, and become judges with evil thoughts?
“Behold, I know your thoughts, the schemes by which you wrong me.
Who shows no partiality before princes, and does not favor the rich over the poor, for they are all the work of His hands.
For He stands at the right hand of the needy, to save him from those who condemn his soul.
For the music director: “Do Not Destroy,” a Michtam of David.
“How long will you judge unjustly and show partiality to the wicked? Selah
“So I also have made you despised and lowly to all the people, because you are not keeping My ways but show favoritism in Torah.”
Then the Lord said, “Hear what the unjust judge is saying.
Do not judge by appearance, but judge righteously.”
But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, open to reason, full of mercy and good fruits, impartial, not hypocritical.
Do not speak evil against one another, brethren. The one who speaks against a brother or judges his brother, speaks evil against the Torah and judges the Torah. But if you judge the Torah, you are not a doer of the Torah, but a judge.
