Matthew 23:28 in Context — Matthew 23
26 Pharisien aveugle! Nettoie premièrementl’intérieur de la coupe et du plat, afin que l’extérieur aussi devienne net.
27 Malheur à vous, scribes et pharisiens hypocrites! Parce que vous ressemblez àdes sépulcres blanchis, qui paraissent beaux au-dehors, et qui, au-dedans, sont pleins d’ossements de morts et de toute espèce d’impuretés.
28 Vous de même, au-dehors, vous paraissez justes aux hommes, mais, au-dedans, vous êtes pleins d’hypocrisie et d’iniquité.
29 Malheur à vous, scribes et pharisiens hypocrites! Parce que vous bâtissez les tombeaux des prophètes et ornez les sépulcres des justes,
30 et que vous dites: Si nous avions vécu du temps de nos pères, nous ne nous serions pas joints à eux pour répandre le sang des prophètes.
