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 — the legal illustration applies eschatological urgency to the present moment. The time before the court appearance is the time for settlement; the time before the kingdom's final arrival is the time for repentance and reconciliation.
