Matthew 23:29 in Context — Matthew 23
27 Ai de vós, escribas e fariseus, hipócritas! Porque sois semelhantes aos sepulcros caiados, que por fora realmente parecem belos, mas por dentro estão cheios de ossos de cadáveres, e de toda imundícia.
28 Assim também vós, por fora, realmente pareceis justos às pessoas, mas por dentro estais cheios de hipocrisia e de injustiça.
29 Ai de vós, escribas e fariseus, hipócritas! Porque edificais os sepulcros dos profetas, adornais os monumentos dos justos,
30 e dizeis: “Se estivéssemos nos dias dos nossos pais, nunca teríamos sido cúmplices deles quando derramaram o sangue dos profetas”.
31 Assim vós mesmos dais testemunho de que sois filhos dos que mataram os profetas.
