Commentary on Matthew 7:5
First remove your own log, then you'll see clearly to help your brother. This isn't prohibiting all judgment but commanding honest self-judgment first. After dealing with your own sin, you're qualified to help others humbly and clearly, no longer a hypocrite but a repentant helper.
