Matthew 23:16Woe to you, blind guides! You say, ‘If anyone swears by the temple, it means nothing; but if anyone swears by the gold of the temple, he is bound by his oath.’Matthew 23:17You blind fools! Which is greater: the gold, or the temple that makes it sacred?Matthew 23:18And you say, ‘If anyone swears by the altar, it means nothing; but if anyone swears by the gift on it, he is bound by his oath.’Matthew 23:19You blind men! Which is greater: the gift, or the altar that makes it sacred?Matthew 23:20So then, he who swears by the altar swears by it and by everything on it.Matthew 23:21And he who swears by the temple swears by it and by the One who dwells in it.Matthew 23:22And he who swears by heaven swears by God’s throne and by the One who sits on it.Matthew 23:23Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, you hypocrites!
