But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees come to his baptism, he said unto them, O generation of vipers, who has warned you to flee from the wrath to come?

For I say unto you, That except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, you shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven.

And when the Pharisees saw it, they said unto his disciples, Why does your Teacher eat with tax collectors and sinners?

Then came to him the disciples of John, saying, Why do we and the Pharisees fast often, but your disciples fast not?

But the Pharisees said, He casts out demons through the prince of the demons.

But when the Pharisees saw it, they said unto him, Behold, your disciples do that which is not lawful to do upon the sabbath day.

Then the Pharisees went out, and held a council against him, how they might destroy him.

But when the Pharisees heard it, they said, This fellow does not cast out demons, but by Beelzebub the prince of the demons.

Then certain of the scribes and of the Pharisees answered, saying, Teacher, we would see a sign from you.

Then came to Jesus scribes and Pharisees, who were from Jerusalem, saying,

Then came his disciples, and said unto him, Know you that the Pharisees were offended, after they heard this saying?

The Pharisees also with the Sadducees came, and testing him desired that he would show them a sign from heaven.

Then Jesus said unto them, Take heed and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees.

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