Luke 19. 47 [ Oxford & Cambridge University Press 1961 ‘The New English Bible’ ]
Day by day he taught in the temple. And the chief priests and lawyers were bent upon making an end of him, with the support of the leading citizens, but they found they were helpless, because the people all hung upon his words.
Luke 20.45
In the hearing of all the people Jesus said to his disciples: “Beware of the lawyers who love to walk up and down in long robes, and have a great liking for respectful greetings in the streets, the chief seats in our synagogues, and places of honour at feasts. These are the men who eat up the property of widows, while they say long prayers for appearance’ sake; and they will receive the severest sentence.”
