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.”
46 And He said, “Woe to you also, lawyers! aFor you load men with burdens hard to bear, and you yourselves do not touch the burdens with one of your fingers.
