'Lawyers' in the Bible
But the Pharisees and the lawyers rejected God’s purpose for themselves, not having been baptized by John.
One of the lawyers *said to Him in reply, “Teacher, when You say this, You insult us too.”
But He said, “Woe to you lawyers as well! For you weigh men down with burdens hard to bear, while you yourselves will not even touch the burdens with one of your fingers.
Woe to you lawyers! For you have taken away the key of knowledge; you yourselves did not enter, and you hindered those who were entering.”
And Jesus answered and spoke to the lawyers and Pharisees, saying, “Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath, or not?”
