Luke 16:15

Hypocrisy, Law, And The Kingdom Of God

¹⁴ The Pharisees too, who were noted for avarice, heard all this discourse, and treated him with derision. ¹⁵ but he said to them, you pretend to piety before men, which, however they may admire, is an abomination to God, who knows your real temper. ¹⁶ the law and the prophets were the only rule till John's time: since when, the kingdom of God has been proclaim'd, and all sorts of people strive to be members.
