    Jehovah your God

    . . . treats none with
    partiality.


    —
    Deut. 10:17.

    Impartiality is one of Jehovah’s endearing qualities. What does it mean to be impartial?
    It involves being fair, free from having or showing bias or favoritism. Genuine impartiality
    has two elements: attitude and actions.

    Why are both needed?

    Because only if someone is impartial in his outlook will he be moved to treat all with impartiality.
    In the Christian Greek Scriptures, the expression “not partial†literally means not a
    “taker of faces,†that is, not favoring one face over another. (
    Acts 10:34; Kingdom Interlinear)
    Hence, one who is impartial will pay due regard, not to an individual’s
    outward appearance or circumstances, but to his or her character as a person.

    Jehovah is the greatest example of impartiality.

    His Word states that he “is not partial†and that he “treats none with partiality.â€



    —Acts 10:34, 35.
