1C Because there was no king in Israel during the time of the judges, the children of Israel did what was right in their own eyes, and as a result they became rotten and corrupted—Judg. 17:6; 18:1; 19:1; 21:25:
21 Moses told the people of Israel that when they entered the good land, they should not do things that were right in their own eyes but not right in the eyes of God—Deut. 12:8-14.
32 Satan caused the people of Israel to do what was right in their own eyes, to be lawless and godless, and to cast off God’s constraint; this is revealed in Judges 17—18; 19:1; and 21:25.
43 今天的基督徒常说,某事在他们眼中看是对的,或是不对的;这种作法,就是行自己眼中看为正的事。
43 Christians today often say that to them a certain thing is right or wrong; to live in this way is to do what is right in our own eyes.
6D When there was no king in Israel, there was no authority, and the people just did what they pleased; this is exactly the state of things in the present evil age, both in the world and in Christianity as a religious system—Eph. 2:2, 12.
7E In the Lord’s recovery we need to be delivered from the lawlessness portrayed in Judges and to live under the rule of God in the kingdom of God and do the will of God—Titus 2:14; Gal. 1:4; Matt. 6:10.
