Exegesis
If we do not repent of the large sins in our own life yet judgmentally notice sins in others' lives (v. 4), Christ is saying this constitutes hypocrisy.
Immediately after telling us that we shouldn't worry about the "morrow" because we have enough willfull disobedience to repent of each day (3 Ne 13:34), the Lord seems to be reminding us not to worry about the sins of others, but to remain primarily responsible for our own sins (v. 5).
