Job Thirty-Two - Respecting Person


"I will speak, that I may find relief; I must open my lips and answer. Let me not, I pray, show partiality to anyone; nor let me flatter any man. For I do not know how to flatter, else my Maker would soon take me away," Job 32:20-22, NKJV. #RespectingPerson
The phrase 'showing partiality' is also translated as 'respecting the person' of an individual, to describe the act of giving personal favoritism in a variety of settings in the scriptures; God is very adamant regarding the sinfulness of this behavior, commanding us not to do it to the weak or the strong.
Leviticus 19:15, Proverbs 18:5 and Galatians 2:6.
