Matthew23:27
For ye are like - Παρομοιαζετε, ye exactly resemble - the parallel is complete.
Whited sepulchres - White-washed tombs. As the law considered those unclean who had touched any thing belonging to the dead, the Jews took care to have their tombs white-washed each year, that, being easily discovered, they might be consequently avoided.
