And He charged them, saying, Take heed, beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and the leaven of Herod.

But the Pharisees said, He casts out demons by the ruler of the demons.

Then His disciples came and said to Him, Do You know that the Pharisees were offended when they heard this saying?

But woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you shut up the kingdom of Heaven against men; for you neither go in yourselves, nor do you allow those who are entering to go in.

And their scribes and the Pharisees murmured against His disciples, saying, Why do you eat and drink with tax collectors and sinners?

So the scribes and Pharisees watched Him closely, whether He would heal on the Sabbath, that they might find an accusation against Him.

But the Pharisees and lawyers rejected the purpose of God for themselves, not having been immersed by him.

And the Lord said to him, Now you Pharisees make the outside of the cup and dish clean, but your inward part is full of robbery and wickedness.

And as He said these things to them, the scribes and the Pharisees began to quarrel with Him forcefully, and to cross-examine Him about many things,

lying in wait for Him, and seeking to catch Him in something He might say, in order to accuse Him.

Now the Pharisees, who were lovers of money, also heard all these things, and they derided Him.

The Pharisees heard the crowd murmuring these things concerning Him, and the Pharisees and the chief priests sent officers to take Him.

Now both the chief priests and the Pharisees had given a command, that if anyone knew where He was, he should report it, that they might seize Him.

For Jehovah the God of Israel, says that He hates divorce, and to cover violence with one's garment, says Jehovah of Hosts. Therefore take heed to your spirit and do not deal treacherously.

Furthermore it has been said, Whoever puts away his wife, let him give her a certificate of divorce.

But I say to you that whoever puts away his wife for any reason except sexual perversion causes her to commit adultery; and whoever marries a woman who is divorced commits adultery.

The Pharisees also came to Him, testing Him, and saying to Him, Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife for just any reason?

Now to the married I command, yet not I but the Lord: A wife is not to leave her husband.

But, indeed, in case she does leave, let her remain unmarried or be reconciled to her husband. And a husband is not to send away his wife.

And the Pharisees came out and began to dispute with Him, seeking from Him a sign from Heaven, testing Him.

Then the Pharisees and Sadducees came, and tempting Him, asked that He would show them a sign out of Heaven.

Then one of them, a lawyer, asked Him a question, testing Him, and saying,

This they said, testing Him, that they might have something of which to accuse Him. But Jesus stooped down and wrote on the ground with His finger, as though He did not hear.

nor let us test Christ, as some of them also tempted, and were destroyed by serpents;
