Blind fools! Which is more important, the gold or the Temple which makes the gold holy?

How blind you are! Which is the more important, the gift or the altar which makes the gift holy?

Blind guides! You strain a fly out of your drink, but swallow a camel!

Blind Pharisee! Clean what is inside the cup first, and then the outside will be clean too!

"Don't worry about them! They are blind leaders of the blind; and when one blind man leads another, both fall into a ditch."

He says, "All the leaders, who are supposed to warn my people, are blind! They know nothing. They are like watch dogs that don't bark---they only lie around and dream. How they love to sleep!

They are like greedy dogs that never get enough. These leaders have no understanding. They each do as they please and seek their own advantage.

Jesus said, "I came to this world to judge, so that the blind should see and those who see should become blind."

Jesus answered, "If you were blind, then you would not be guilty; but since you claim that you can see, this means that you are still guilty."

"You have also heard that people were told in the past, 'Do not break your promise, but do what you have vowed to the Lord to do.'

But now I tell you: do not use any vow when you make a promise. Do not swear by heaven, for it is God's throne;

Above all, my friends, do not use an oath when you make a promise. Do not swear by heaven or by earth or by anything else. Say only "Yes" when you mean yes, and "No" when you mean no, and then you will not come under God's judgment.

But you teach that if people have something they could use to help their father or mother, but say, 'This belongs to God,'

they do not need to honor their father. In this way you disregard God's command, in order to follow your own teaching.

For Moses commanded, 'Respect your father and your mother,' and, 'If you curse your father or your mother, you are to be put to death.'

they are excused from helping their father or mother.

Once more I warn any man who allows himself to be circumcised that he is obliged to obey the whole Law.
