“The Pharisees were the pious ones of Israel, and as such resolved to be separated from all filthiness of hedonism. They considered themselves the hedge around Israel and its law. And they were rigorous in their submission to the all of the Levitical law and all of its prescriptions for purity. They were engrossed in a system of pure externalism which often violated the very spirit of those ordinances which were from God—the letter of which they slavishly worshipped. And as such, they were deeply out of touch with the heart of their God. And they were absolutely perplexed by the person of Jesus.”
