What is the right meaning of justice?

Let me start off by saying that my opinion is going to be different than yours, and no one has the same opinion on what’s right. In Plato’s Republic, Cephlus believed that Justice means that you have to follow legal obligations and be honest, Polemarchus believes justice means that you owe your friends help and owe enemy’s harm. My opinion is, you should follow the law but to a certain point, if it’s risking someone’s life don’t do it, and if you can save someone’s life, you can break the law. 

People are more important than the law. Also, Polemarchus was wrong in saying you owe your enemies harm. God says to love everyone, even your enemies. And if God says it’s the right thing, you shouldn’t let the law, or any person, tell you differently. 

The only law should be God’s law, because nobody knows better than Him. You should follow what you truly know is right and what God says is right. One example from the Republic was, if you borrow a knife from a person who you know could and has harmed someone physically, should you give it to them? You owe it to them and it’s the law to give things back or it’s stealing. Would you give it to them? There are more examples where sometimes the law does cover what’s justice, sometimes you need to break a few rules to save someone from harm. Don’t go out looking to break the law, but also do what you can for the people around you.
