Blind Pharisee The term "Blind Pharisee" is a powerful rebuke from Jesus, highlighting the spiritual blindness of the religious leaders of His time. The Pharisees were known for their strict adherence to the Law and traditions, yet Jesus calls them "blind," indicating their inability to perceive spiritual truths. The Greek word for "blind" is "τυφλός" (typhlos), which can mean both physical and spiritual blindness. This blindness is not due to a lack of knowledge but a refusal to see the truth of Jesus' teachings. Historically, the Pharisees were respected for their piety, but Jesus exposes their hypocrisy, emphasizing that true sight comes from understanding and living out God's commandments with a pure heart. first clean the inside of the cup and dish so that the outside may become clean as well Parallel Commentaries ...
