GOSPEL READING: LUKE 11:42-46
Woe to you
Jesus criticized the Pharisees and the scholars of the law. These two were the primary opponents of Jesus. There were also other groups like Sadducees. However these two were the prominent groups. Among the two, the Pharisees were the worst.
The Pharisees believed that their external piety would redeem them. So they multiplied the practices of piety and the like. The Scribes of the law multiplied the rules with the intention of making it practical and simpler. But they multiplied the rules to the extend people were not able to fulfill them.
நற்செய்தி வாசகம்: லூக்கா 11:42-46
ஐயோ! உங்களுக்குக் கேடு!
பரிசேயரும் மறைநூல் அறிஞரும் இNயுசுவுக்கு எதிராக இருந்தார்கள். அவர்கள் பக்திமுயற்சிகளையும், வெளிஅடையாளங்களையும், விவிலிய விளக்கங்களையும் முன்வைத்தார்கள் ஆனால் கடவுளையும் மக்களையும் மறந்தார்கள்.
