Understanding Justice and Hypocrisy in the Administration of Justice

Justice, as defined by God, is about fairness and adhering to the principle of 'measure for measure.' While just punishment can be softened, it cannot be exceeded. However, human hypocrisy has distorted the concept of justice by advocating for retribution and seeking a pound of flesh in the name of divine justice. It is challenging to withstand wrongdoing and injustice without retaliating, and it is easy to misconstrue personal grievances as aligning with the will of God. Bringing hypocrisy to Jesus is essential, but it is crucial not to mistake it for His true nature.
