The Leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees

5 Now awhen His disciples had come to the other side, they had forgotten to take bread.  
6 Then Jesus said to them, a“Take heed and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and the Sadducees.”  
7 And they reasoned among themselves, saying, “It is because we have taken no bread.”
8 But Jesus, being aware of it, said to them, “O you of little faith, why do you reason among yourselves because you1 have brought no bread?  
9 aDo you not yet understand, or remember the five loaves of the five thousand and how many baskets you took up?  
10 aNor the seven loaves of the four thousand and how many large baskets you took up?  
11 How is it you do not understand that I did not speak to you concerning bread?—but to beware of the1 leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees.”  
12 Then they understood that He did not tell them to beware of the leaven of bread, but of the1 doctrine of the Pharisees and Sadducees.

15 He said to them, “But who do ayou say that I am?”
