Matthew Chapter 22 Verse 41While the Pharisees were gathered together, Jesus asked them,

‹But as touching the resurrection of the dead, have ye not read that which was spoken unto you by God, saying,›

‹I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob? God is not the God of the dead, but of the living.›

And when the multitude heard [this], they were astonished at his doctrine.

But when the Pharisees had heard that he had put the Sadducees to silence, they were gathered together.

Then one of them, [which was] a lawyer, asked [him a question], tempting him, and saying,

Master, which [is] the great commandment in the law?

Jesus said unto him, ‹Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.›

‹This is the first and great commandment.›

‹And the second› [is] ‹like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.›

‹On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.›

Saying, ‹What think ye of Christ? whose son is he?› They say unto him, [The Son] of David.

He saith unto them, ‹How then doth David in spirit call him Lord, saying,›

‹The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, till I make thine enemies thy footstool?›

‹If David then call him Lord, how is he his son?›

And no man was able to answer him a word, neither durst any [man] from that day forth ask him any more [questions].

Then spake Jesus to the multitude, and to his disciples,

Saying, ‹The scribes and the Pharisees sit in Moses' seat:›

‹All therefore whatsoever they bid you observe,› [that] ‹observe and do; but do not ye after their works: for they say, and do not.›

‹For they bind heavy burdens and grievous to be borne, and lay› [them] ‹on men's shoulders; but they› [themselves] ‹will not move them with one of their fingers.›

‹But all their works they do for to be seen of men: they make broad their phylacteries, and enlarge the borders of their garments,›
