In context
37 David himself calls Him ‘Lord.’ So how can He be David’s son?” And the large crowd listened to Him with delight.
38 In His teaching Jesus also said, “Watch out for the scribes. They like to walk around in long robes, to receive greetings in the marketplaces,
39 and to have the chief seats in the synagogues and the places of honor at banquets.
40 They defraud widows of their houses, and for a show make lengthy prayers. These men will receive greater condemnation.”
41 As Jesus was sitting opposite the treasury, He watched the crowd putting money into it. And many rich people put in large amounts.
