When he saw many of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees come to his baptism, he said unto them, "O generation of vipers, who hath taught you to flee from the vengeance to come?

For I say unto you, Except your righteousness exceed the righteousness of the Scribes and Pharisees, ye cannot enter into the kingdom of heaven.

When the Pharisees saw that, they said unto his disciples, "Why eateth your master with publicans and sinners?"

Then came the disciples of John to him, saying, "Why do we and the Pharisees fast oft, but thy disciples fast not?"

But the Pharisees said, "He casteth out devils, by the power of the chief devil."

When the Pharisees saw that, they said unto him, "Behold: thy 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 that, they said, "This fellow driveth the devils no other wise out, but by the help of Beelzebub the chief of the devils."

Then answered certain of the scribes and of the Pharisees saying, "Master, we would fain see a sign of thee."

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

Then came his disciples, and said unto him, "Perceivest thou not, how that the Pharisees are offended in hearing this saying?"

Then came to him the Pharisees with the Sadducees also, and did tempt him, desiring him to show them some sign from heaven.

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

Why perceive ye not, then, that I spake not unto you of bread, when I said, 'Beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees?'"

Then understood they, how that he bade not them beware of the leaven of bread: but of the doctrine of the Pharisees, and of the Sadducees.

Then came unto him the Pharisees to tempt him, and said to him, "Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife for all manner of causes?"
