This is not meant of the temporal 1judgements: for Christ forbade not that, but oft did stablish it, as do Peter & Paul in their Epistles also. Nor here is not forbidden to judge those deeds which are manifest against the law of God: for those ought every Christen man to persecute, yet must they do it after the order that Christ hath set. But when he saith: hypocrite, cast out first the 2beam that is in thine own eye: it is easy to understand of what manner of judging he meaneth.

Why pluck they the ears of corn and rub them in their hands (though they did it compelled with pure hunger) and do that is not lawful on the Sabbath day? Why break ye the traditions of our Elders, and wash not when ye sit down to meat? yea and why dost thou thy self heal the people upon the holy day? Why diddest thou, not only heal him that was bedrid 38. years,
