Matthew 23:6
World English Bible (WEB)
and love the place of honor at feasts, the best seats in the synagogues,
In context
4 For they bind heavy burdens that are grievous to be borne, and lay them on men’s shoulders; but they themselves will not lift a finger to help them.
5 But they do all their works to be seen by men. They make their phylacteries broad and enlarge the fringes of their garments,
6 and love the place of honor at feasts, the best seats in the synagogues,
7 the salutations in the marketplaces, and to be called ‘Rabbi, Rabbi’ by men.
8 But you are not to be called ‘Rabbi’, for one is your teacher, the Christ, and all of you are brothers.
