John7:24

24 Judge not according to the appearance , but judge righteous judgment .

Do not Judge Persons, and condemn me for what I have done, merely out of your Hatred, Prejudice, and Malice against me. Or do not judge according to the first appearance of this Fact. It looketh to you as a violation of the Sabbath; it is not indeed so, but the performance of a Duty greater than that of Sanctifying the Sabbath is.

Judge Righteously, and do not condemn in me what you your selves do in other causes, because of your hatred to, and prejudice against me; nor condemn an Action which is in it self a Righteous Action, and not deserving Condemnation.

Marginal references: Deut. 1.16. Prov. 24.23.
