Matthew 23:30 Context
28Euen so, yee also outwardly appeare righteous vnto men, but within ye are full of hypocrisie and iniquitie. 29Woe vnto you Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites, because ye build the tombes of the Prophets, and garnish the sepulchres of the righteous, 30And say, If wee had beene in the dayes of our fathers, wee would not haue bene partakers with them in the blood of the Prophets. 31Wherefore ye bee witnesses vnto your selues, that yee are the children of them which killed the Prophets. 32Fil ye vp then the measure of your fathers.
