The scribes' evil practices (Mk 12:38-40)

The scribes’ evil practices (Mk 12:38-40)

(Mark 12:38-40)


38 And he said unto them in his doctrine, Beware of the scribes, which love to go in long clothing, and love salutations in the marketplaces,

39 And the chief seats in the synagogues, and the uppermost rooms at feasts:

40 Which devour widows' houses, and for a pretence make long prayers: these shall receive greater damnation.
