II Chronicles 19:6 And charging the judges, he said: Take heed what you do: for you exercise not the judgment of man, but of the Lord: and whatsoever you judge, it shall redound to you.

And whatsoever. Hebrew, "who is with you in the judgment." The Lord will confirm your just decisions, and punish your injustice. (Haydock) --- God stood in the synagogue of gods, or judges, Psalm 81:1. Judges ought not so much to regard man as God, when they pass sentence. (Calmet) --- How then will the Anabaptists deny that a man may sit in judgment? (Tirinus)
