Luke11:42

42 But wo unto you Pharisees, for ye tithe mint and rue and all manner of herbs, and pass over judgment and the love of God, these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone.

See the Notes on Matth. 23.23. There are two great Notes of Hypocrites. 1. To be more exact in, and Zealous for the observation of Rituals and the Traditions of men, than in and for the observation of the Moral Law of God. 2. In matters of Morality to be more exact, and strict in, and for little things, than for things more grave and weighty. There is no Commandement of God so little as we may neglect, or despise, or disobey it, but yet there is a difference in Duties, and we ought to have a first regard to the greater, than to the lesser.
