23:1 Yeshua’s warnings about show and status

(Mark 12:38-39, Luke 11:43)

23Then Yeshua spoke to the crowds and to his followers, 2The religious teachers and the Pharisees party claim the authority of Moses. 3Because of that, do everything they tell you to do and obey all the commandments they tell you to obey. However, don’t follow what they do, because they’re only good at telling and not at doing. 4They package up heavy and unbearable loads and place them across the shoulders of the people, while they themselves won’t even more their little fingers. 5[ref]Everything that they do do, is only done to be a public display in front of the people, so they have big prayer boxes and fancy robes. 6They love the best place at dinners and the best seats in the meeting halls 7and being greeted in the marketplaces and to be addressed as ‘My great one’. 8But don’t let anyone call you ‘My great one’, because you only have one leader and you are all brothers and sisters, 9and don’t let anyone call you ‘Father’ on earth, because you all only have one heavenly father. 10Don’t let anyone call you their mentor, because you all have only one teacher and that’s the messiah. 11[ref]The most important person will be everyone’s servant 12[ref]and anyone who praises themself will be humbled, and anyone who humbles themself will be praised.


23Then the Yaʸsous spoke to_the crowds and to_the apprentices/followers of_him 2saying:
The scribes and the Farisaios_party sat_down on the seat of_Mōsaʸs/(Mosheh).
3Therefore all things as_much_as wishfully they_may_tell to_you_all, do and be_keeping, but be_ not _doing according_to the works of_them, because/for they_are_speaking and they_are_ not _doing.
4And they_are_binding heavy and unbearable burdens, and they_are_laying_ them _on on the shoulders of_ the _people, but they are_ not _willing to_move them with_the finger of_them.
5But all the works of_them, they_are_doing in_order that to_be_seen by_the people.
For/Because they_are_widening the phylacteries of_them and they_are_magnifying their tassels.
6And they_are_loving the best_place at the suppers, and the best_seats in the synagogues, 7and the greetings in the marketplaces, and to_be_being_called My_great_one by the people.
8But you_all may_ not _be_called My_great_one, because/for one is the instructor of_you_all, and you_all are all brothers.
9And you_all_may_ not _call of_you on the earth father, because/for one is the the heavenly father of_you_all.
10Nor may_you_all_be_called instructors, because one is the_instructor of_you_all, the chosen_one/messiah.
11And the greater of_you_all will_be servant of_you_all.
12And whoever will_be_exalting himself, will_be_being_humbled, and whoever will_be_humbling himself, will_be_being_exalted.
