15Ay de vosotros, escribas y Fariseos, hipócritas! porque rodeáis la mar y la tierra por hacer un prosélito; y cuando fuere hecho, le hacéis hijo del infierno doble más que vosotros.
16Ay de vosotros, guías ciegos! que decís: Cualquiera que jurare por el templo es nada; mas cualquiera que jurare por el oro del templo, deudor es.
17Insensatos y ciegos! porque ¿cuál es mayor, el oro, ó el templo que santifica al oro?
18Y: Cualquiera que jurare por el altar, es nada; mas cualquiera que jurare por el presente que está sobre él, deudor es.
19Necios y ciegos! porque, ¿cuál es mayor, el presente, ó el altar que santifica al presente?
20Pues el que jurare por el altar, jura por él, y por todo lo que está sobre él;
21Y el que jurare por el templo, jura por él, y por Aquél que habita en él;
22Y el que jura por el cielo, jura por el trono de Dios, y por Aquél que está sentado sobre él.

27Ay de vosotros, escribas y Fariseos, hipócritas! porque sois semejantes á sepulcros blanqueados, que de fuera, á la verdad, se muestran hermosos, mas de dentro están llenos de huesos de muertos y de toda suciedad.

 The Lord is bringing out, in the most emphatic way, the danger of a suspicious judicial spirit. And He shows that the way to deal rightly, if we desire the good of His people and their deliverance from evil, is to begin with self-judgment. (Remarks on Matthew 7 by W. Kelly)
 Hypocrisy is the most hateful evil that can be found under the name of Christ — a thing that even the natural conscience writhes under and rejects. (Remarks on Matthew 7 by W. Kelly)
 Often we find that when the beam is gone, the mote is not to be seen, having already disappeared. And where the heart is set upon the Lord, would we be sorry to find ourselves mistaken about our brother? (Remarks on Matthew 7 by W. Kelly)
