And to have the best seats in the Synagogues, and places of honor at dinner.
Then Jesus speaking to the crowds and to his disciples, said:
and like to have the place of honor at dinner, and the best seats in the Synagogues,
In the course of his teaching, Jesus said: "See that you are on your guard against the Teachers of the Law, who delight to walk about in long robes, and to be greeted in the streets with respect,
They are the men that rob widows of their homes, and make a pretense of saying long prayers. Their sentence will be all the heavier."
