Scribes: Modern: Often offended at out Lord's Conduct and Teaching

But the chief priests and scribes were indignant when they saw the wonders He performed and the children shouting in the temple courts, “Hosanna to the Son of David!”

But some of the scribes were sitting there and thinking in their hearts,

“Why does this man speak like this? He is blaspheming! Who can forgive sins but God alone?”

When the scribes who were Pharisees saw Jesus eating with these people, they asked His disciples, “Why does He eat with tax collectors and sinners?”

And the scribes who had come down from Jerusalem were saying, “He is possessed by Beelzebul,” and, “By the prince of the demons He drives out demons.”
