36
Master, which
is
the great commandment in the law?
37
Jesus said unto him,
Thou shalt love the
Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.
38
This is the first and
great commandment.
39
And the second
is
like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
40
On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.
41
While the Pharisees were gathered together, Jesus asked them,
42
Saying,
What think ye of
Christ? whose son is he? They say unto him,
The Son
of David.
43
He saith unto them,
How then
doth David in spirit call him Lord, saying,
44
The L
ORD
said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right
hand, till I make thine enemies thy footstool?
45
If David then call him Lord, how is he his son?
46
And no man was able to answer him a word, neither durst any
man
from that day forth ask him
any more
questions.
CHAPTER 23
Then spake Jesus to the multitude, and to his disciples,
2
Saying,
The scribes and the Pharisees sit
in Moses’ seat:
3
All therefore whatsoever they bid you observe,
that
observe and do; but do not
ye after their works: for they say, and do not.
4
For they bind heavy burdens and grievous to be
borne, and lay
them
on men’s shoulders; but they
themselves
will not move them with one of their
fingers.
5
But all their works they do for to be seen of men: they make broad their phylacteries,
and enlarge the borders of their garments,
6
And love the uppermost rooms at feasts, and the chief
seats in the synagogues,
7
And greetings in the markets, and to be called of men, Rabbi, Rabbi.
8
But be not ye called Rabbi: for one is your Master,
even
Christ; and all ye are brethren.
9
And call
no
man
your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven.
10
Neither be ye
called masters: for one is your Master,
even
Christ.
11
But he that is greatest among you shall be
your servant.
12
And whosoever shall exalt himself shall be abased; and he that shall humble himself
shall be exalted.
13
But woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye shut up the kingdom of heaven
against men: for ye neither go in
yourselves,
neither suffer ye them that are entering to go in.
14
Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye devour widows’ houses, and for a pretence
make long prayer: therefore ye shall receive the greater damnation.
15
Woe unto you, scribes and
Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye compass sea and land to make one proselyte, and when he is made,
ye make him twofold more the child of hell than yourselves.
16
Woe unto you,
ye
blind guides,
which say, Whosoever shall swear by the temple, it is nothing; but whosoever shall swear by the
gold of the temple, he is a debtor!
17
Ye
fools and blind: for whether is greater, the gold, or the
temple that sanctifieth the gold?
18
And, Whosoever shall swear by the altar, it is nothing; but
whosoever sweareth by the gift that is upon it, he is guilty.
19
Ye
fools and blind: for whether
is
greater, the gift, or the altar that sanctifieth the gift?
20
Whoso therefore shall swear by the altar,
sweareth by it, and by all things thereon.
21
And whoso shall swear by the temple, sweareth by it,
