1. “For I was an hungred, and ye gave me no meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me no drink:”

a. For [Strong: 1063 gár, gar; a primary particle; properly, assigning a reason (used in argument, explanation or intensification; often with other particles):—and, as, because (that), but, even, for, indeed, no doubt, seeing, then, therefore, verily, what, why, yet.]

b. [I was an] hungred [Strong: 3983 peináō, pi-nah'-o; from the same as G3993 (through the idea of pinching toil; "pine"); to famish (absolutely or comparatively); figuratively, to crave:—be an hungered.]

c. and [Strong: 2532 kaí, kahee; apparently, a primary particle, having a copulative and sometimes also a cumulative force; and, also, even, so then, too, etc.; often used in connection (or composition) with other particles or small words:—and, also, both, but, even, for, if, or, so, that, then, therefore, when, yet.]

d. [ye] gave [Strong: 1325 dídōmi, did'-o-mee; a prolonged form of a primary verb (which is used as an alternative in most of the tenses); to give (used in a very wide application, properly, or by implication, literally or figuratively; greatly modified by the connection):—adventure, bestow, bring forth, commit, deliver (up), give, grant, hinder, make, minister, number, offer, have power, put, receive, set, shew, smite (+ with the hand), strike (+ with the palm of the hand), suffer, take, utter, yield.]

e. me [Strong: 3427 moí, moy; the simpler form of G1698; to me:—I, me, mine, my.]

g. meat [Strong: 5315 phágō, fag'-o; a primary verb (used as an alternate of G2068 in certain tenses); to eat (literally or figuratively):—eat, meat.]

h. [I was] thirsty [Strong: 1372 dipsáō, dip-sah'-o; from a variation of G1373; to thirst for (literally or figuratively):—(be, be a-)thirst(-y).]

i. and [Strong: 2532 kaí, kahee; apparently, a primary particle, having a copulative and sometimes also a cumulative force; and, also, even, so then, too, etc.; often used in connection (or composition) with other particles or small words:—and, also, both, but, even, for, if, or, so, that, then, therefore, when, yet.]

j. [ye gave] me [Strong: 3165 mé, meh; a shorter (and probably original) form of G1691; me:—I, me, my.]

k. no [Strong: 3756 ou, oo; a primary word; the absolute negative (compare G3361) adverb; no or not:—+ long, nay, neither, never, no (X man), none, (can-)not, + nothing, + special, un(-worthy), when, + without, + yet but.]

1). There are a number of judgments mentioned in Scripture, the Judgment Seat of Christ for believers (Romans 14:10-12); the Great White Throne Judgment (Revelation 20:11-15); This Judgment is the judgment of the Nations, where nations/gentiles existing at the time of Christ’s return will be judged for their treatment of the Jews (my brethren). I may be wrong but it could possibly include true born again believers from all nations. Some scholars see this as a fulfillment of Joel 3:11, 12. The wording is similar. This judgment is also known as the judgment of the sheep and goat nations. The separation point in this judgment is how these treated Christ’s brethren (Matthew 25:34-46). Some scholars fit this as a compliment to James 2:14-26).  

a). Joel 3:11, 12 Assemble yourselves, and come, all ye heathen, and gather yourselves together round about: thither cause thy mighty ones to come down, O Lord.

3:12 Let the heathen be wakened, and come up to the valley of Jehoshaphat: for there will I sit to judge all the heathen round about.
