ἄνθρωπε, man! discouraging, no sympathy with the object (cf. Romans 2:1; Romans 9:20). κριτὴν, a judge, deciding the right or equity of the case; μεριστὴν, an arbiter carrying out the judgment (here only in N.T.). The application was the less blameworthy that appeals to Rabbis for such purposes seem to have been not infrequent (Schanz).
