Luke 11:37-41
After Jesus had spoken,
a Pharisee invited him to dine at his home.
He entered and reclined at table to eat.
The Pharisee was amazed to see
that he did not observe the prescribed washing before the meal.
The Lord said to him, “Oh you Pharisees!
Although you cleanse the outside of the cup and the dish,
inside you are filled with plunder and evil.
You fools!
Did not the maker of the outside also make the inside?
But as to what is within, give alms,
and behold, everything will be clean for you.”

"Tinuligsa ni Jesus ang Kasamaan ng mga Pariseo."
Lucas 11: 37-41
Pagkatapos magsalita, si Jesus ay inanyayahan ng isang Pariseo upang kumain, kaya't pumunta siya sa bahay nito. Pagdulog sa hapag, nagtaka ang Pariseo nang makita niyang kumain si Jesus ng hindi muna naghuhugas ng kamay.
Sinabi sa kanya ng panginoon, "Kayong mga Pariseo, hinuhugasan ninyo ang labas ng tasa at ng pinggan, ngunit ang loob ninyo'y punong puno ng kasakiman at kasamaan." Mga hangal! Hindi bat ang may likha ng labas ay siya ring may likha ng loob?
Ngunit ipamahagi muna ninyo sa mga dukha ang mga laman ng mga sisidlan at magiging malinis ang lahat ng bagay para sa inyo.

Webster dictionary defines Pharisee as:
1. A member of a Jewish sect of the intertestamental period noted for strict observance of rites and ceremonies of the written law and for insistence on the validity of their own oral traditions concerning the law.
2. A hypocritically self-righteous person.
The pharisees were arrogant because they thought that they were all powerful and God like when in truth, Jesus was the truly powerful one.
Sa panahon ngayon, napakaraming taong kung kumilos ay parang mga Pariseo kagaya nuong unang panahon.
Silay's magagaling mangaral at akala mo ay napakabait at napakabanal subalit sa kanilang kalooban, ito'y punong puno ng kasakiman at kasamaan.
Hindi mahalaga sa ating Panginoon ang ating ipinakikitang panlabas na gawain para patunayang tayo ay banal kundi ang totoong layunin ng ating mga puso.
Gob bless you!
