1. THEN JESUS said to the multitudes and to His disciples,
2. The scribes and Pharisees sit on Moses' seat [of authority].
3. So observe and practice all they tell you; but do not do what they do, for they preach, but do not practice.
4. They tie up heavy loads, hard to bear, and place them on men's shoulders, but they themselves will not lift a finger to help bear them.
