Jesus asks, “Do not notice~?” at the end of verse 3. Notice here means to observe; it means observing and discovering.
While not seeing oneself, one becomes an observer of others and criticizes and judges this and that about others.
The Bible does not tell us to be an observer of others, but to be an observer of ourselves and to always become new; to find myself in Christ, as Paul said.
To believe in Jesus is to find myself in Jesus, to repent of my sins, and to become new through the words of Jesus.
