JUSTIFY
v.t.[L. justus, just, and facio, to make. ] 1. To prove or show to be just, or conformable to law, right, justice, propriety or duty; to defend or maintain; to vindicate as right.

3. To cause another to appear comparatively righteous, or less guilty than one's self. Ezekiel 16:51 -52.
4. To judge rightly of.
Wisdom is justified by her children. Matthew 11:19.
5. To accept as just and treat with favor. James 2:21, 24 -25.
