All this does not tell us exactly what the Hebrews of the Old Testament understood by judging. Granted that it was associated with the Lord, and with the service men should offer Him, what precisely did the Hebrews understand by the term? Scholars cannot be said to have reached even general agreement on this point. Three main lines of approach may ...
It must be emphasized that, whether the judgment be that of the Lord or that of men, it is fundamentally dynamic. Basically judgment is the process whereby one discerns between the right and the wrong and takes action as a result. There is dispute between two, a determination as to the rights of the matter, and then―action. The dynamic character of...
Shaphat© and its cognates are incomparably the most important and the most frequently used Old Testament words for expressing the idea of judgment. Accordingly we have examined them at some length. But a number of other words reinforce shaphat©, and we must give attention to those which are rendered by ‘judge’ or some similar expression.
Brown, Driver and Briggs give the meaning of this verb as ‘judge’ and they speak of it as a synonym of shaphat©.44 When they come to classify the uses of the word they put first ‘act as judge, minister judgment’. There is undoubtedly a legal base to this word group, just as is the case with shaphat© and its relations. But in usage there tends to be...

Thus the prophet speaks the word of the Lord to Joshua, ‘If thou wilt walk in my ways, and if thou wilt keep my charge, then thou also shalt judge my house...’ (Zc. iii. 7).50 For the noun, used without possibility of mistaking the meaning, let us notice the...
Brown, Driver and Briggs give the meaning of this verb as ‘decide, adjudge, prove (NH Pi. argue with)’, while Köhler lists eight meanings, beginning with ‘I. reprove... 2. argue before...’ The word denotes a rather more argumentative process than those with which we have so far had to do. There is often the idea of discussion or argument, though wi...
From the very beginning it was clear that Jesus’ mission included a stern condemnation of evil. John the Baptist said that He would baptize ‘with the Holy Ghost and with fire: whose fan is in his hand, and he will throughly cleanse his theshing―floor; and he will gather his wheat into the garner, but the chaff he will burn up with unquenchable fire...

2. God’s Judgments Upon the Nations, Israel, the Individual and the World. a. God’s judgment upon the nations. There are numerous passages in the OT where statements are made regarding God’s judgment upon the heathen nations. In Amos 1:3-2:5 God brings judgment upon Syria, Philistia, Tyre, Edom, Ammon, and Moab.
In Matt. 7:1, the Lord said, “Do not judge lest you be judged.” Then, in verses 2-5 he warns against trying to correct others without first correcting what is wrong in our own lives. If we deal honestly deal with our own hearts, etc., then we have the responsibility to help others.
