Gospel
text (Mathew 23,27-32): Jesus
said, «Woe to you, teachers of the Law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You are
like whitewashed tombs beautiful in appearance, but inside there are only dead
bones and uncleanness. In the same way you appear as religious to others, but
you are full of hypocrisy and wickedness within. Woe to you, teachers of the
Law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You build tombs for the prophets and
decorate the monuments of the righteous. You say: Had we lived in the time of
our ancestors, we would not have joined them in the blood of prophets. So, you
yourselves confess to be kins of those who murdered the prophets. And now,
finish off what your ancestors began!».
