But when he saw many of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees coming to his baptism, he said to them, O ye broods of vipers! who hath warned you to flee from the wrath to come?

For I say unto you, That except your righteousness abounds more than that of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no wise enter into the kingdom of heaven.

And the Pharisees observing it, said to his disciples, How is this, that your Master eateth with publicans and sinners?

Then came unto him disciples of John, saying, Why do we and the Pharisees keep many fasts, but thy disciples fast not?

But the Pharisees said, By the prince of the devils doth he cast the devils out.

But when the Pharisees saw it, they said to him, Behold, thy disciples do a thing that it is not lawful to do on the sabbath.

Then the Pharisees went out, and held a consultation against him, how they might make away with him.

But the Pharisees hearing them, said, This fellow casteth not out devils, but by Beelzebub, the prince of the devils.

Then certain of the scribes and Pharisees addressed him, saying, Master, we desire to see a sign from thee.

THEN came to Jesus scribes and Pharisees from Jerusalem, saying,

Then his disciples approaching, said to him, Knowest thou how offended the Pharisees were at hearing that speech?

AND the Pharisees and the Sadducees came to him, and, to make trial of him, desired him to shew them a sign from heaven.

Then Jesus said to them, Beware and abstain from the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees.

How is it that ye do not understand, that I spake not to you of bread, to beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees?
