The seven 'woes' of this chapter are not comfortable to read (Matthew 23:1-36). They speak of judgement which will come to religious people who exploit the things of God for their own benefit (Matthew 23:32-33). But Jesus did not make these hard statements because He hated the Pharisees. We know that because, after exposing their hypocrisy, He released a flood of compassion for them … so that His disciples could hear. He wanted the trainee apostles to understand His deep love for the rebellious people who had systematically refused to submit to God.
