Romans 2:3

3 Do you really think-anyone of you who judges those who do such things yet do the same-that you will escape God's judgment?

Romans 2:3 Meaning and Commentary

Romans 2:3

And thinkest thou this, O man, that judgest them which do
such things, and doest the same
Some men may be so vain as to imagine, that though they do the same things which they condemn in others, they

shall escape the judgment of God:
but such will find themselves most sadly mistaken; there is no avoiding the general judgment; all men must come to it; there will be no eluding it through craftiness and deceit, through bribery and corruption; there will be no escaping condign punishment, through might in the criminal, or through the judge's ignorance of his crimes, or want of ability and power to punish.

Romans 2:3 In-Context

1 Therefore, anyone of you who judges is without excuse. For when you judge another, you condemn yourself, since you, the judge, do the same things.

2 We know that God's judgment on those who do such things is based on the truth.

3 Do you really think-anyone of you who judges those who do such things yet do the same-that you will escape God's judgment?

4 Or do you despise the riches of His kindness, restraint, and patience, not recognizing that God's kindness is intended to lead you to repentance?

5 But because of your hardness and unrepentant heart you are storing up wrath for yourself in the day of wrath, when God's righteous judgment is revealed.
