Laundry Comments.

A young couple moves into a new neighbourhood.

The next morning while they are eating breakfast, the young woman sees her neighbour hanging the wash outside.

“That laundry is not very clean,” she said. “She doesn’t know how to wash correctly. Perhaps she needs better laundry soap.” Her husband looked on, but remained silent.

Every time her neighbour would hang her wash to dry, the young woman would make the same comments.

About one month later, the woman was surprised to see a nice clean wash on the line and said to her husband: “Look, she has learned how to wash correctly. I wonder who taught her this?”

The husband said, “I got up early this morning and cleaned our windows.”

“But why do you look on the twig that is in the eye of your brother, but do not see the log in your eye? ⁴Or how will you say to your brother, allow me to cast out the twig from your eye; and behold, the log is in your eye! ⁵Hypocrite, first cast the log out of your eye, and then you will see clearly to cast the twig out of the eye of your brother.” Matthew 7:3 – 5
