Subject: The Blind leading the blind |
Bible Note: Hello keliy, my friend in the Lord, you say that Jesus knew the hearts of the Pharisees, therefore he was not critical of the washing of hands tradition, but of the Pharisees themselves. Jesus called them hypocrites, the blind leading the blind because they kept the practice of one tradition, but transgressed the command of God regarding a penalty of death to a rebellious child. All I am searching for is what was wrong with washing hands before eating and what was wrong with changing God's hedious law of death to a rebellious child? Thanks to anyone who can help. dave |
