Then in the audience of all the people Whilst they were about him, and hearing him, and for their sakes too; he said unto his disciples; yea, he spake to the multitude, as well as to the disciples, as appears from ( Matthew 23:1 ) .
44
David thus calls him Lord; so how is he his son?"
45
And in the hearing of all the people he said to his disciples,
46
"Beware of the scribes, who like to go about in long robes, and love salutations in the market places and the best seats in the synagogues and the places of honor at feasts,
47
who devour widows' houses and for a pretense make long prayers. They will receive the greater condemnation."
