Listen to Lucas 20:47
47 Devoran los bienes de las viudas y a la vez hacen largas plegarias para impresionar a los demás. Estos recibirán peor castigo.

Lucas 20:47 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 20:47

Which devour widows' houses
As the characters of them, in the preceding verse, expose their pride, this shows their avarice; they were very voracious and cruel; they did not spare widows, but devoured their substance: and for a show make long prayers;
to cover their wickedness, pretending great devotion and religion; the same shall receive greater damnation:
than openly profane sinners; doing such wickedness under a cloak of religion, will aggravate their condemnation; (See Gill on Matthew 23:14).

Lucas 20:47 In-Context

45 Mientras todo el pueblo lo escuchaba, Jesús les dijo a sus discípulos:
46 —Cuídense de los maestros de la ley. Les gusta pasearse con ropas ostentosas y les encanta que los saluden en las plazas, y ocupar el primer puesto en las sinagogas y los lugares de honor en los banquetes.
47 Devoran los bienes de las viudas y a la vez hacen largas plegarias para impresionar a los demás. Estos recibirán peor castigo.
