And when the scribes who belonged to the Pharisees' party saw that He was eating with notorious sinners and tax-collectors, they said to His disciples, "Why does He eat with tax-collectors and notorious sinners?"

Now John's disciples and the Pharisees were keeping a fast. So some people came and asked Him, "Why do John's disciples and the Pharisees' disciples practice fasting, but yours never do?"

So the Pharisees were saying to Him, "Just look! Why are they doing on the Sabbath what it is against the law to do?"

Then the Pharisees went out and held a consultation with the Herodians against Him, to put Him to death.

The Pharisees met about Him, and also some scribes who had come from Jerusalem.

For the Pharisees and all the Jews practice the customs handed down to them from their forefathers,

And so the Pharisees and the scribes asked Him, "Why is it that your disciples do not practice the customs handed down from our forefathers, but eat their meals without purifying their hands?"

Now the Pharisees came out and began a discussion with Him, and to test Him asked Him to show them a spectacular sign from heaven.

Then He kept warning them by saying, "Look out! Keep on guarding yourselves against the yeast of the Pharisees and the yeast of Herod."

Some Pharisees came up, and to test Him they began to ask Him whether a man should be allowed to divorce his wife.

Then they sent some Pharisees and Herodians to Him to trap Him in argument.
