Couldn’t tell you which verse/s they’re in off the top of my head, but there’s a group mentioned in the Bible called the “Pharisees” who, despite being outwardly super pious, were at odds with Jesus because of their hyper-focus with man-made rules and their obsession with showy shit that broadcasted their religious status to everyone around them, but failed to help anyone who wasn’t one of their own.

It’s my favorite because it sets a biblical basis for why Jesus would fucking hate modern Christianity. The hordes of people who go to church every week, wear their cross necklaces, slap the fish logo on the back of their truck… and then vote to make “thy neighbor’s” life a living hell if that neighbor happens to be something other than a straight white male christian… those are the modern day Pharisees. And the venn diagram of today’s Christians and modern Pharisees is just a single, crisp circle.
