TSK · Matthew 23:13

Sinners are afraid in Zion; panic grips the godless. They say,‘Who among us can coexist with destructive fire? Who among us can coexist with unquenchable fire?’

Which of the two did his father’s will?” They said,“The first.” Jesus said to them,“I tell you the truth, tax collectors and prostitutes will go ahead of you into the kingdom of God!

“Woe to you, experts in the law and you Pharisees, hypocrites! You give a tenth of mint, dill, and cumin, yet you neglect what is more important in the law– justice, mercy, and faithfulness! You should have done these things without neglecting the others.

“Woe to you, experts in the law and you Pharisees, hypocrites! You are like whitewashed tombs that look beautiful on the outside but inside are full of the bones of the dead and of everything unclean.

Woe to you Pharisees! You love the best seats in the synagogues and elaborate greetings in the marketplaces!

The officers replied,“No one ever spoke like this man!”

Then they summoned the man who used to be blind a second time and said to him,“Promise before God to tell the truth. We know that this man is a sinner.”

But to keep this matter from spreading any further among the people, let us warn them to speak no more to anyone in this name.”

and they summoned the apostles and had them beaten. Then they ordered them not to speak in the name of Jesus and released them.

But the magician Elymas(for that is the way his name is translated) opposed them, trying to turn the proconsul away from the faith.

And just as Jannes and Jambres opposed Moses, so these people– who have warped minds and are disqualified in the faith– also oppose the truth.
