Matthew 7:4 - Exposition

Parallel passage: Luke 6:42 . Or . A second case is supposed. You may only see the mote or you may offer to remove it. How; with any conscience. Wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me pull out? Let me ( ἄφες , Luke 3:15 ). There is nothing here of the rudeness that so often accompanies censeriousness. Pull out ; Revised Version, cast out ( ἐκβάλω ). The thought is of the completeness, not the method, of the removal (of. Matthew 9:38 ). A beam; the beam (Revised Version); i.e. the beam already mentioned.
