rkjnt - Luke:11:37-54

rkjnt@Luke:11:37 @ And as he spoke, a certain Pharisee begged him to dine with him: and he went in, and reclined at the table.

rkjnt@Luke:11:38 @ And the Pharisee was surprised when he saw that he had not first washed before dinner.

rkjnt@Luke:11:39 @ And the Lord said to him, Now you Pharisees clean the outside of the cup and the platter; but inside you are full of greed and wickedness.

rkjnt@Luke:11:40 @ You fools, did not he who made the outside also make the inside?

rkjnt@Luke:11:41 @ But rather give what you have within as alms; and, behold, all things are clean for you.

rkjnt@Luke:11:42 @ But woe to you, Pharisees! for you tithe mint and rue and all manner of herbs, but neglect justice and the love of God: these you ought to have done, and not left the others undone.

rkjnt@Luke:11:43 @ Woe to you, Pharisees! for you love the best seats in the synagogues, and greetings in the marketplaces.

rkjnt@Luke:11:44 @ Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for you are like unmarked graves, which men walk over unaware.

rkjnt@Luke:11:45 @ Then one of the lawyers answered him, Teacher, by saying this you insult us also.

rkjnt@Luke:11:46 @ And he said, Woe to you also, lawyers! for you load men with burdens they can hardly carry, and you yourselves will not touch the burdens with one of your fingers.

rkjnt@Luke:11:47 @ Woe to you! for you build the tombs of the prophets, and your fathers killed them.

rkjnt@Luke:11:48 @ Truly you bear witness that you approve of the deeds of your fathers: for they killed them, and you build their tombs.

rkjnt@Luke:11:49 @ For this reason also the wisdom of God said, I will send them prophets and apostles, and some of them they shall kill and persecute,

rkjnt@Luke:11:50 @ That the blood of all the prophets, which was shed from the foundation of the world, may be required of this generation;

rkjnt@Luke:11:51 @ From the blood of Abel to the blood of Zechariah, who perished between the altar and the temple: truly I say to you, It shall be required of this generation.

rkjnt@Luke:11:52 @ Woe to you, lawyers! for you have taken away the key of knowledge: you did not enter in yourselves, and those who were entering in you hindered.

rkjnt@Luke:11:53 @ And as he left, the scribes and Pharisees began to be hostile, and to question him closely on many things:

rkjnt@Luke:11:54 @ Lying in wait for him, and seeking to catch something out of his mouth, that they might accuse him.
