Romans 2:20 in Context — Romans 2

18 conheces a vontade [dele] , e aprovas as melhores coisas, por seres instruído na lei;

19 e confias ser guia dos cegos, luz dos que estão nas trevas,

20 instrutor dos tolos, professor das crianças, e que consideras a lei como a forma do conhecimento e da verdade;

21 tu, pois, que ensinas ao outro, não ensinas a ti mesmo? Tu que pregas que não se deve furtar, furtas?

22 Tu que dizes que não se deve adulterar, adulteras? Tu que odeias os ídolos, profanas templos?
