Luke 11:33
Compare all
31 aThe queen of the South will rise up in the judgment with the men of this generation and condemn them, for she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and indeed a bgreater than Solomon is here.  
32 The men of Nineveh will rise up in the judgment with this generation and condemn it, for athey repented at the preaching of Jonah; and indeed a greater than Jonah is here.  

The Lamp of the Body

33 a“No one, when he has lit a lamp, puts it in a secret place or under a bbasket, but on a lampstand, that those who come in may see the light.  
34 aThe lamp of the body is the eye. Therefore, when your eye is1 good, your whole body also is full of light. But when your eye is2 bad, your body also is full of darkness.  
35 Therefore take heed that the light which is in you is not darkness.
36 If then your whole body is full of light, having no part dark, the whole body will be full of light, as when the bright shining of a lamp gives you light.”

Woe to the Pharisees and Lawyers

37 And as He spoke, a certain Pharisee asked Him to dine with him. So He went in and sat down to eat.
38 aWhen the Pharisee saw it, he marveled that He had not first washed before dinner.  
39 aThen the Lord said to him, “Now you Pharisees make the outside of the cup and dish clean, but byour inward part is full of greed and wickedness.  
40 Foolish ones! Did not aHe who made the outside make the inside also?  
41 aBut rather give alms of such things as you have; then indeed all things are clean to you.  
42 a“But woe to you Pharisees! For you tithe mint and rue and all manner of herbs, and bpass by justice and the clove of God. These you ought to have done, without leaving the others undone.  
43 aWoe to you Pharisees! For you love the best seats in the synagogues and greetings in the marketplaces.  
44 aWoe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! bFor you are like graves which are not seen, and the men who walk over them are not aware of them.”  
45 Then one of the lawyers answered and said to Him, “Teacher, by saying these things You reproach us also.”
