Romans 14:3 - Ellicott's Commentary On The Whole Bible

Bible Comments

Let not him that eateth. — The two classes of men are exposed to two opposite faults. The strong despise the weak; the weak judge the strong. In the one case there is contempt for what is thought to be narrowness and pedantry. In the other case censorious judgments are passed on what is regarded as levity and irreligion. Human nature alters very little.

God hath received him. — Strictly, received him, admitted him into His Church when he was baptised, and so took him for His own.

Romans 14:3

3 Let not him that eateth despise him that eateth not; and let not him which eateth not judge him that eateth: for God hath received him.
