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

For I say to you that unless your righteousness shall exceed that of the scribes and Pharisees, you shall in no case enter into the kingdom of Heaven.

And when the Pharisees saw, they said to His disciples, Why does your master eat with tax-collectors and sinners?

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

But the Pharisees said, He throws out demons by the ruler of the demons.

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

Then the Pharisees went out and held council against Him, as to how they might destroy Him.

But when the Pharisees heard, they said, This one does not cast out demons except by Beelzebub the ruler of the demons.

Then certain of the scribes and of the Pharisees answered, saying, Master, we want to see a sign from you.

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

Then His disciples came and said to Him, Do You know that the Pharisees were offended when they heard this saying?

The Pharisees and the Sadducees came to Him, tempting Him. And they asked Him that He would show them a sign from Heaven.

And Jesus said to them, Take heed, and beware the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees.

How is it that you do not understand that I did not speak to you about loaves, but to beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees?

Then they understood that He did not say to beware of the leaven of bread, but of the doctrine of the Pharisees and Sadducees.

And the Pharisees came to Him, tempting Him and saying to Him, Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife for every cause?

And when the chief priests and Pharisees heard His parables, they knew that He spoke of them.

Then the Pharisees left and took counsel that they might entangle Him in words.

But hearing that He had silenced the Sadducees, the Pharisees were gathered together.

While the Pharisees were gathered, Jesus asked them,

saying, The scribes and the Pharisees sit in Moses' seat.

But woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you shut up the kingdom of Heaven against men. For you neither go in, nor do you allow those entering to go in.

Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you devour widows' houses, and pray at length as a pretense. Therefore you shall receive the greater condemnation.

Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you compass sea and the dry land to make one proselyte, and when he is made, you make him twofold more the child of hell than yourselves.

Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you pay tithes of mint and dill and cummin, and you have left undone the weightier matters of the Law, judgment, mercy, and faith. You ought to have done these and not to leave the other undone.

Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you cleanse the outside of the cup and of the dish, but inside they are full of extortion and excess.

Blind Pharisee! First cleanse the inside of the cup and of the dish, so that the outside of them may be clean also.

Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you are like whitewashed tombs, which indeed appear beautiful outside, but inside they are full of dead men's bones, and of all uncleanness.

Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! Because you build the tombs of the prophets, and decorate the tombs of the righteous,

And on the next day, which was after the Preparation, the chief priests and the Pharisees gathered to Pilate,

And when the scribes and Pharisees saw Him eat with tax-collectors and sinners, they said to His disciples, How is it that He eats and drinks with tax-collectors and sinners?

The disciples of John and those of the Pharisees were fasting. And they came and said to Him, Why do John's disciples and those of the Pharisees fast, but your disciples do not fast?

And the Pharisees said to Him, Behold, why do they do that which is not lawful on the sabbath day?

The Pharisees went out and immediately took counsel with the Herodians against Him, how they might destroy Him.

And the Pharisees and some of the scribes came together to Him, having come from Jerusalem.

For the Pharisees and all the Jews do not eat unless they immerse their hands with the fist, holding the tradition of the elders.

Then the Pharisees and scribes asked Him, Why do your disciples not walk according to the tradition of the elders, but eat loaves with unwashed hands?

And the Pharisees came out and began to dispute with Him, seeking a sign from Heaven from Him, tempting Him.

And He charged them, saying, Take heed! Beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the leaven of Herod.

And tempting Him, the Pharisees came to Him and asked Him, Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife?

And they sent certain of the Pharisees and of the Herodians to Him, to catch Him in His words.

And it happened on one of the days, even He was teaching. And Pharisees and teachers of the Law were sitting by, who had come out of every village of Galilee and Judea and Jerusalem. And the power of the Lord was there, for the curing of them.

And the scribes and Pharisees began to reason, saying, Who is this who speaks blasphemies? Who can forgive sins, except God alone?

But their scribes and Pharisees murmured against His disciples, saying, Why do you eat and drink with tax-collectors and sinners?

And they said to Him, Why do John's disciples fast often and make prayers, and also the disciples of the Pharisees, but yours eat and drink?

And certain of the Pharisees said to them, Why do you do that which is not lawful to do on the sabbath days?

And the scribes and Pharisees watched him to see if He would heal on the sabbath day, so that they might find an accusation against Him.

But the Pharisees and lawyers rejected the counsel of God against themselves, not being baptized by him.

And one of the Pharisees asked Him to eat with him. And going into the Pharisee's house, He reclined.

And behold, a woman, a sinner in the city, knowing that He reclined in the Pharisee's house, brought an alabaster vial of ointment.

But seeing this, the Pharisee who had invited Him, spoke within himself, saying, This man, if he were a prophet, would have known who and what kind of woman this is who touches him, for she is a sinner.

And as He spoke, a certain Pharisee asked Him to dine with him. And He went in and reclined.

And when the Pharisee saw it, he was amazed that He had not first washed before dinner.

And the Lord said to him, Now you Pharisees make the outside of the cup and the platter clean, but your inward part is full of plunder and wickedness.

But woe to you, Pharisees! For you tithe mint and rue and every herb, and pass over judgment and the love of God. You ought to have done these, and not to leave the other undone.

Woe to you, Pharisees! For you love the chief seats in the synagogues and greetings in the markets.

Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you are like unseen tombs and the men walking above are not aware of them.

And as He said these things to them, the scribes and Pharisees began to be terribly angry, and to draw Him out concerning many things,

In the meantime, when there had gathered together an innumerable crowd of people, so as to trample on one another, He began to say to His disciples first, Beware of the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy.

The same day there came certain of the Pharisees, saying to Him, Go out and depart from here, for Herod will kill you.

And as He went into the house of one of the chief Pharisees to eat bread on the sabbath day, it happened that they watched Him.

And answering, Jesus spoke to the lawyers and Pharisees, saying, Is it lawful to heal on the sabbath day?

And the Pharisees and scribes murmured, saying, This man receives sinners and eats with them.

And being money-lovers, all the Pharisees also heard all these things. And they derided Him.

And being asked by the Pharisees when the kingdom of God would come, He answered and said, The kingdom of God does not come with observation.

Two men went up into the temple to pray; the one a Pharisee, and the other a tax-collector.

The Pharisee stood and prayed within himself in this way: God, I thank You that I am not as other men are, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even like this tax-collector.

And some of the Pharisees from the crowd said to Him, Teacher, rebuke your disciples.

And they who were sent were from the Pharisees.

And there was a man of the Pharisees named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews.

Therefore when the Lord knew how the Pharisees had heard that Jesus made and baptized more disciples than John

The Pharisees heard that the crowd murmured such things concerning Him. And the Pharisees and the chief priests sent officers to seize Him.

Then the officers came to the chief priests and Pharisees. And they said to them, Why have you not brought him?

Then the Pharisees answered them, Also, have you not been deceived?

Is it not true that not any of the rulers or of the Pharisees have believed into him?

And the scribes and Pharisees brought to Him a woman taken in adultery. And standing her in the midst,

Therefore the Pharisees said to Him, You bear record concerning yourself; your witness is not true.

They brought him who once was blind to the Pharisees.

Then again the Pharisees also asked him how he had received his sight. He said to them, He put clay upon my eyes, and I washed, and I see.

Therefore some of the Pharisees said, This man is not from God, because he does not keep the sabbath. Others said, How can a man, a sinner, do such miracles? And there was a division among them.

And those of the Pharisees who were with Him heard these words, and said to Him, Are we also blind?

But some of them went to the Pharisees and told them what Jesus had done.

Then the chief priests and Pharisees gathered a sanhedrin, and said, What can we do? For this man does many miracles.

And all the chief priests and the Pharisees had given commands, that if anyone knew where He was, he should make it known so that they might seize Him.

Then the Pharisees said among themselves, Do you see how you gain nothing? Behold, the world has gone after Him.

Still, however, even out of the rulers, many did believe on Him. But because of the Pharisees they did not confess, lest they should be put out of the synagogue;

Then Judas, having received a band and officers from the chief priests and Pharisees, came there with lanterns and torches and weapons.

Then there stood up one in the sanhedrin, a Pharisee named Gamaliel, a doctor of the Law honored among all the people. And he commanded the apostles to be put outside a little space.

But some of those from the sect of the Pharisees, having believed, rose up, saying, It was necessary to circumcise them and to command them to keep the Law of Moses.

But when Paul saw that the one part were Sadducees and the other part Pharisees, he cried out in the sanhedrin, Men! Brothers! I am a Pharisee, the son of a Pharisee! I am being judged because of the hope and resurrection of the dead.

And when he had said this, there arose a dissension between the Pharisees and the Sadducees; and the multitude was divided.

For the Sadducees say that there is no resurrection, neither angel, nor spirit; but the Pharisees confess both.

And there arose a great cry. And the scribes who were on the Pharisees' side arose and strove, saying, We find no evil in this man. But if a spirit or an angel has spoken to him, let us not fight against God.

who knew me from the first, if they would testify, that according to the strictest sect of our religion I lived a Pharisee.

I was circumcised the eighth day, of the stock of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, a Hebrew of the Hebrews. As regards the Law, I was a Pharisee;
