mōt ( κάρφος , kárphos ): A minute piece of anything dry or light, as straw, chaff, a splinter of wood, that might enter the eye. Used by Jesus in Matthew 7:3 ff; Luke 6:41 in contrast with "beam," to rebuke officiousness in correcting small faults of others, while cherishing greater ones of our own.
