AE 629c [14]
. . . it is permissible to everyone
to think about the moral and civil life of another,
and to judge of it;
without such thought and judgment concerning others
no civil society could subsist;
therefore "not to judge and condemn"
signifies not to think evil of the neighbor spiritually understood,
that is, of his faith and love, which belong to a person's spiritual life,
for these lie concealed in his interiors,
and therefore are unknown to anyone except the Lord alone.
