1 Corinthians 11:31 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

This word judge in Scripture signifies all parts of judgment, examining, accusing, condemning, &c.: here it signifies accusing ourselves, condemning ourselves; discriminating ourselves, by the renewings of faith and repentance, from unbelievers, impenitent and profane persons: if we would thus judge ourselves, God would not accuse or condemn us.

1 Corinthians 11:31

31 For if we would judge ourselves, we should not be judged.
