4
They make hard laws and put great weights on men's backs; but they themselves will not put a finger to them
5
But all their works they do so as to be seen by men: for they make wide their phylacteries, and the edges of their robes,

And the things desired by them are the first places at feasts, and the chief seats in the Synagogues,
