Job 36:17

 

 

17 But thou hast fulfilled [male'] the judgment [diyn] of the wicked [rasha`]: judgment [diyn] and justice [mishpat] take hold [tamak] on thee. KJV-Interlinear

 

 

17 'But you were full of judgment on the wicked; Judgment and justice take hold of you. NASB

 

 

Judge not lest you be judged.

 

There is no place for opinionated people in the spiritual life. There is no place for self-righteousness in the spiritual life. There is no place for critics, inordinate ambition, negative competition, unreasonable expectations, or anything that presumes to elevate you at the expense of someone else, in the spiritual life.

 

The spiritual life is free, or should be free, of these types of human expressions of arrogance.

 

Judgment and justice go hand in hand. They cannot be separated from each other.

 

Judgment is the conclusion resulting from a thorough evaluation. God is the evaluator, and his evaluation and review of any person's life is thorough and complete. Nothing is ever left out, overlooked, or ignored.

 

Justice is the corrective cleansing process for washing away the filth resulting from the infraction, sin, failure on the person's part. Once justice has served its purpose, then the infraction should be removed and forgotten.

 

Unfortunately for most folks, they do not learn from the justice which is imposed on their lives. And they continue making the same mistakes of attitude and incurring more and more punishments.

 

Thus Elihu's comments here. If you do the deed, you should expect the punishment. If you accuse others of doing wrong, then you should expect to suffer as a result of your gossip. Do not expect to sit back and criticize, when it is not your place to criticize, and not expect repercussions from your sin.

 

So learn the principle. Judgment and justice go hand in hand. What is applicable for others, is applicable to you.

 

See the rock in your own eye and deal with your own self, and ignore the speck in the eyes of others.

Study to show thyself approved (mature) unto God, a workman that needs not to be ashamed, rightly dividing (studying/discerning), the Word of truth.
