Or, this could just be a reference to wasting wisdom (or wit) on those not capable of understanding it. <#simple_minded_wikipedians> --~~

Yes , this is extremely biased and poorly interpreted. Better to cite some well known interpretations than just make your own up, unless you are a spiritual Christian you will not be able to read it the way it is intended. No offence meant.


Excuse me...someone should fix this. It's very biased, and anyone who read it would only get one zealot's opinions.

Judgement Is What Is Holy

edit

I'm not an expert, but it's clear to me that what is holy and should not be given is judgement as previously referred to and this judgement manifested in some form of criticism. In this case, pearls reminds me of "pearls of wisdom" that can be gleaned from criticism. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.15.42.72 (talk) 22:35, 15 March 2010 (UTC)Reply

I agree with this I suppose but I'll put a looser translation that may get the understanding of what I think was being said due to the context of judgement in the preceeding verses.

"Don't go around flaunting holiness and pointing out the sin of the lost, because they will just ignore it thinking you judgemental and point out your flaws." — Preceding unsigned comment added by 206.211.222.52 (talk) 05:14, 15 June 2012 (UTC)Reply

The meaning of this verse is crystal clear

edit

It means to NOT share biblical insights with aggressive pagans - lest they physically attack you because they hate Godly things. Jesus came for the lost sheep of Israel - all those who know him hear his voice when he calls to them through The Word. Matthew 7:6 ties in very nicely with the admonition to "knock the dust from your sandals" when leaving a village that rejects the Good News. 98.118.62.140 (talk) 03:40, 2 June 2013 (UTC)Reply
