which the Pharisees observing, why, said they to his disciples, is your master so familiar with publicans and such loose people?

when the Scribes and Pharisees saw him eating with such a crew, they ask'd his disciples, what's the meaning that he is so familiar with people of such a wretched character?

at which the Pharisees and Scribes murmured, saying, this man gives access to men of bad character, and eats with them.

but the Pharisees hearing that he had dumb-founded the Sadducees, they met together in council.

While the Pharisees were still assembled, Jesus asked them,

As he was pursuing his discourse, the Scribes and Pharisees passionately urg'd him with many captious questions, in order to ensnare him,

the Pharisees, and Scribes therefore ask'd Jesus, why don't your disciples observe the tradition of the antients? why do they take their meals without washing their hands?

upon which the Scribes and Pharisees objected among themselves, saying, what a man is this to blaspheme thus? who can forgive sins but God alone?

Jesus therefore addressing himself to the doctors of the law, and to the Pharisees, said, is it allowable to perform a cure on the sabbath-day? to which they made no answer.

Upon the Pharisees asking him, when the kingdom of God should come, he answer'd them, the kingdom of God is not usher'd in with pomp and exclamations,

Jesus therefore knowing the Pharisees had heard that he made more disciples, and baptized more than John,

(the Pharisees being inform'd what the people rumour'd concerning him, they and the chief priests sent their officers to seize him.)

then the Scribes and Pharisees brought a woman surprized in adultery; and when they had set her in the middle of the assembly,

the Pharisees therefore said to him, you give a testimony of your self, your testimony is not valid.

thereupon some of the Pharisees said, this man has no divine mission, because he does not observe the sabbath. but said others, if he be an impostor, how can he do such miracles? and there was a schism among them.

At the same time, some of the Pharisees came to him, and said, get away, retire from hence, for Herod designs to take away your life.

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

the Pharisees seeing that, said to him, see, your disciples are doing what is unlawful to do on the sabbath-day.

upon which the Pharisees said to him, pray observe how they trespass on the sabbath-day.

upon which some of the Pharisees said to them, why do you do what is not allowed to be done on the sabbath-day?

now the Scribes and Pharisees were upon the watch to see if he would work a cure upon the sabbath-day, and so have matter of accusation against him.

upon this some of the Pharisees, who were in the crowd, said to him, master, rebuke your disciples.

Then the Scribes and Pharisees, who were of Jerusalem, came to him and said, why do your disciples violate the tradition of our ancestors, in not washing their hands when they eat bread?

The Pharisees likewise came to him, and maliciously propos'd this question, may a man lawfully put away his wife at discretion?

then the Pharisees came and propos'd to him this insnaring question, is it lawful for a man to repudiate his wife?

At another time, as he was teaching, it happened that some Pharisees, and doctors of the law were sitting by, who came from the several towns of Galilee and Judea, and from Jerusalem: when the power of the Lord appear'd in their relief.

The Pharisees, and certain Scribes from Jerusalem, came in a body to Jesus;

Then certain of the Scribes and of the Pharisees said, master, we should be glad you would shew us some miracle.

there the Pharisees being come, they began to dispute with him, and to try him, desir'd he would work some miracle in the sky.

Now the messengers were of the sect of the Pharisees, and they asked him,

This very man that had been blind, was at length brought to the Pharisees.
