Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Luke 6:37-42
43. Judging others (Matthew 7:1-6; Luke 6:37-42)People who continually find fault with others only invite judgment upon themselves, both from their fellows and from God. In pointing to the faults in others, they attract attention to themselves. They too have faults, and though they themselves may be unaware of them, other people see them very clearly (Matthew 7:1-5).Nevertheless, there is a kind of judgment that is necessary. Those who present the gospel must be able to judge the difference... read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Luke 6:39
And he spake also a parable unto them, can the blind guide the blind? shall they not both fall into a pit?VARIOUS MAXIMSThis truism was uttered on different occasions by Jesus, who directed it especially against the false religious leaders (Matthew 15:14; 23:19,24); and the essential message of it is that men should be careful not to follow religious leaders who themselves are blind spiritually (John 9:39f). read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Luke 6:40
The disciple is not above his teacher: but every one when he is perfected shall be as his teacher.This saying also was frequently used by the Lord to teach various lessons at different times and places. Significantly, Jesus also varied the form of the maxim, using it to foretell the slander of the apostles by unbelievers (Matthew 10:24), to encourage the apostles in the performance of service (John 13:16), and to prophesy the persecutions that would come upon them (John 15:20).

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Luke 6:41
And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye? Or how canst thou say to thy brother, Brother, let me cast out the mote that is in thine eye, when thou thyself beholdest not the beam that is in thine own eye? Thou hypocrite, cast out first the beam out of thine own eye, and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote that is in thy brother's eye.For extended comment on this see my Commentary on Matthew, Matthew 7:3ff.This... read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Luke 6:39-40
Luke 6:39-40. And he spake a parable, &c. Our Lord sometimes used parables, when he know plain and open declarations would too much inflame the passions of his hearers. It is for this reason that he uses this parable. Can the blind lead the blind Can the scribes teach this way, which they know not themselves? Will not they and their scholars perish together? The disciple is not above his master Can they make their disciples any better than themselves? If the master be ignorant,... read more
