Satire » Of jesus against hypocrites
saying, The scribes and Pharisees sat upon the seat of Moses; therefore do and keep all things so many as they may speak to you, but do not according to their works; for they say, and do not. But they bind heavy burdens, and place them on the shoulders of the people; and they themselves are not willing to touch them with their finger. read more.
And they do all their works to be seen by the people: for they broaden their phylacteries, and enlarge the borders of their garments, and they love the first couch at the suppers, and the first seats in the synagogues, and salutations in the forums, and to be called by the people, "Doctor." But be ye not called Doctor: for One is your teacher; and you are all brothers. And call no man father upon the earth: for One is your Heavenly Father. Be not called teachers: because One is your teacher, Christ. And the great of you shall be your deacon. But whosoever shall exalt himself, shall be abased; and whosoever shall humble himself shall be exalted. But woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because you shut up the kingdom of the heavens against the people: for you do not go in, neither do you permit those coming in to enter. OMITTED TEXT Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because you compass the sea and the dry land to make one proselyte, and when it may be done, you make him twofold more the son of hell than yourselves. Woe unto you, blind guides, who are saying, Whosoever may swear by the temple it is nothing; but whosoever may swear by the gold of the temple, he is debtor. Ye fools and blind: for which is the greater, the gold, or the temple sanctifying the gold? And, Whosoever may swear by the altar, it is nothing; but whosoever may swear by the gift upon it, is debtor. Ye blind: for which is the greater, the gift, or the altar which sanctifies the gift? Therefore the one swearing by the altar, swears by it, and by all things which are on it. And the one swearing by the temple, swears by it, and by Him who inhabited it. And the one swearing by heaven, swears by the throne of God, and by Him that sitteth upon it. Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because you tithe mint and anise and cummin, and pass by the weightier matters of the law, judgment, mercy, and faith: it behooves to do these and not to neglect those. Ye blind guides, who strain out the gnat, and swallow down the camel. Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because you purify the exterior of the cup and the plate, and within they are full of extortion and impurity. Ye blind Pharisee, first purify the inside of the cup, in order that its outside may be clean. Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because you are like whitened sepulchers, which are beautiful indeed externally, but within they are full of the hones of the dead people, and every impurity. So you also appear unto the people indeed righteous, but within you are full of hypocrisy and iniquity. Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because you build the tombs of the prophets, and ornament the sepulchers of the righteous, and you say, If we were in the days of our fathers we would not have been their fellow-partakers in the blood of the prophets. So you witness to yourselves, that you are the sons of those who murdered the prophets. And you fill up the measure of your fathers. Ye serpents, generations of vipers, how can you escape from the judgment of hell?

And they send to Him certain ones of the Pharisees and Herodians, that they may catch Him with speech. And they having come, say to Him, Teacher, we know that thou art true, and there is not a care to thee for any one: for thou dost not look into the face of men, but thou dost teach the way of God in truth: is it lawful to give tribute to Caesar, or not? must we give, or must we not give? And knowing their hypocrisy, He said to them, Why tempt ye me? Bring to me the denarion, that I may see it. read more.
And they brought it. And He says to them, Whose is this image and superscription? And they say to Him, Caesar's. And Jesus responding said to them, Render unto Caesar the things which are Caesar's, and unto God the things which are God's. And they were astonished at Him. And the Sadducees come to Him, who say there is no resurrection; and asked Him, saying; Teacher, Moses wrote to us, That if the brother of any man may die, and leave a wife and have no children, that his brother must take his wife and raise up seed to his brother. There were seven brothers, and the first took a wife, and dying left no seed. And the second received her and died, and he left no seed; and the third likewise. And the seven received her and left no seed. Last of all the woman also died. Then in the resurrection, when they may rise, of which one of them shall she be the wife? for the seven had her a wife. And Jesus responding, said to them; Therefore do you not err, not knowing the Scriptures nor the power of God? For when they may rise from the dead, they neither marry nor are given in marriage; but they are as angels in the heavens. But concerning the dead, that they are raised, have you not read in the book of Moses at the Bush, how God spoke to him saying; I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob? He is not the God of the dead, but of the living. You do err much. And a certain one of the scribes, hearing them propounding questions, knowing that He answered them beautifully, asked Him, What is the first commandment of all? And Jesus responded to him, The first commandment of all; Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God, is one Lord: and thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength.

And the scribes said to Him, Truly, Teacher; thou hast spoken in truth that He is One; and there is no other besides Him. And love Him with all the heart, and with all the mind, and with all the strength, and to love thy neighbor as thyself is more than all whole burnt offerings and sacrifices. And Jesus seeing that he answered intelligently, said to him, Thou art not far from the kingdom of God. And no one dared to ask Him any more, And Jesus responding spoke, teaching in the temple, How do the scribes say that Christ is the son of David? For David himself said in the Holy Spirit, the Lord said unto my Lord; Sit thou on my right hand, until I may make thine enemies the footstool of thy feet! Then David himself calls Him Lord; and whence is He his son? And the great multitude were hearing Him delightfully. And He said to them in His teaching, Beware of the scribes, wishing to walk about in robes, and salutations in the forums, and the first seats in the synagogues, and the first couches at the suppers. They are those devouring the houses of widows, and making long prayers through pretext; they shall receive the greater judgment.

And the Lord said to him, Now you Pharisees purify the outside of the cup and the plate, but the interior is full of extortion and wickedness. Ye fools, did not the One having made the outside also make the inside? Therefore give alms of your substance; and behold all things are pure unto you. read more.
But woe unto you, Pharisees! because you tithe mint and rue and every herb, and you pass by judgment and the love of God: it behooveth to do these things, and not to omit those. Woe unto you, Pharisees! because you love the front seat in the synagogues, and salutations in the forums. Woe unto you! because you are like tombs unseen, and men walking over them do not know it. And a certain one of the theologians responding says to Him, Teacher, speaking these things yon indeed insult us. And He said, Woe unto you, theologians! because you lay burdens on the people difficult to be borne, and you yourselves do not touch the burdens with one of your fingers. Woe unto you! because you build the sepulchers of the prophets, and your fathers killed them. Therefore you are witnesses and you consent unto the works of your fathers: because they slew them, and you build. Therefore the wisdom of God said, I will send unto them prophets and apostles; and some of them they will slay and persecute. In order that the blood of all the prophets poured out from the foundation of the world, may be required from this generation; from the blood of Abel unto the blood of Zachariah, who perished between the altar and the house; yea, I say unto you, it shall be required of this generation. Woe unto you, theologians! because you have taken away the key of knowledge: you did not come in, and you prohibited those who were coming in. And He having come out from thence, the scribes and Pharisees began vehemently to press on Him, and mouth after Him concerning many things; laying in wait, to catch something from His mouth.
