Luke 6:38 - Jamieson, Fausset, and Brown

Luke 6:38

36 ^aTherefore be merciful, just as your Father also is merciful.

Do Not Judge

37 ^a“Judge not, and you shall not be judged. Condemn not, and you shall not be condemned. ^bForgive, and you will be forgiven.

38 ^aGive, and it will be given to you: good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over will be put into your ^bbosom. For ^cwith the same measure that you use, it will be measured back to you.”

39 And He spoke a parable to them: ^a“Can the blind lead the blind? Will they not both fall into the ditch?

40 ^aA disciple is not above his teacher, but everyone who is perfectly trained will be like his teacher.
