For every tree is known by his own fruit. For of thorns men do not gather figs, nor of a bramble bush gather they grapes.
Judge not, that you be not judged; condemn not, that you be not condemned. Show to others the mercy you need yourself, and God will show mercy to you; the merciful to others' names shall find others merciful to theirs. Forgive, give liberally, and it shall be given back into your bosom.

A good man out of the good treasure of his heart,.... This, because of its suitableness and agreement with what goes before, is placed by Luke here; though, according to Matthew, it was spoken at another time and place, unless it should be a repetition there; See Gill on Mat 12:35. for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh.
