'Robbers' in the Bible

Jesus replied, “A man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and he encountered robbers, who stripped him of his clothes [and belongings], beat him, and went their way [unconcerned], leaving him half dead.

Which of these three do you think proved himself a neighbor to the man who encountered the robbers?”

The Pharisee stood [ostentatiously] and began praying to himself [in a self-righteous way, saying]: ‘God, I thank You that I am not like the rest of men—swindlers, unjust (dishonest), adulterers—or even like this tax collector.

saying to them, “It is written, ‘My house shall be a house of prayer’; but you have made it a robbers’ den.”
