Why don't you judge for yourselves what is right? As you are going with your adversary to the magistrate, try hard to be reconciled on the way, or your adversary may drag you before the judge and the judge turn you over to the officer, and the officer throw you into prison. The legal illustration applies the urgency of reconciliation to the present kairos: the time before judgment is the time for settlement, and the crowd is walking to court without attempting reconciliation.
