“Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, (1) play actors! For (2) you build the graves of the prophets and decorate the monuments of the righteous, even saying, ‘If we were in the days of our fathers, we wouldn’t be partners with them in the blood of the prophets.’ Thus you witness against yourselves that you are the sons of those who murdered the prophets. Fill up, then, the measure of your fathers. (3) Serpents, offspring of poisonous snakes, how may you flee from the judgment of the rubbish tip [Greek – gehenna]? Because of this, look and see, I am sending you prophets and wise men and scribes, some of whom you will kill and crucify, and some you will flog in your synagogues and persecute from town to town, so that on you may come all the righteous blood shed on earth, from the blood of righteous Abel to the blood of Zechariah the son of Barachiah, whom you murdered between the sanctuary and the altar. Truly, I say to you, all of these will be coming upon this generation.” Matthew 23: 29-36 | |||||||||||
