Physician, heal thyself (Ἰατρέ, θεράπευσον σεαυτόν) is a proverb found in Luke 4:23. The usual interpretation of this passage is, during the Rejection of Jesus, Jesus expected to hear natives of his hometown of Nazareth use this phrase to criticize him. The moral of the proverb is counsel to attend to one's own defects, rather than criticizing defects in others, a sentiment also expressed in the Discourse on judgmentalism.
