4:108 In order to do so, I will completely cleanse the hearts of everyone without discrimination of those within and those from the wider world. It will do for you to watch carefully.

『おふでさき註釈』、p. 68

一〇八、そのために、世間の人々も又内々の者も隔てなく、皆の胸の中をすっきり掃除するから、よく見ているがよい。

Commentary by Yoshitaro Ueda (2009)

From Michi no dai: Foundation of the Path 34:63

Regarding the work of distinguishing, the verse here says that God will “cleanse” the innermost hearts. Verse 107 spoke of “both the high and the low” whereas verse 108 refers to “those within and all others in the world,” which is to say, those within the Tenrikyo community and others. These verses say that the cleansing of the hearts will proceed without discrimination not only between the high and the low but also between within and without.
