Matthew 23:17-19 Devotionals, Articles & Bible Study

          17You blind fools! Which is greater: the gold, or the temple that makes it sacred?
          18And you say, ‘If anyone swears by the altar, it means nothing; but if anyone swears by the gift on it, he is bound by his oath.’
          19You blind men! Which is greater: the gift, or the altar that makes it sacred?
