Show Notes

When it came to following the Law, some folks probably thought they were doing as well as could reasonably be expected for someone who hadn't been trained as a Pharisee. Most of his hearers, for example, would have thought themselves innocent of violating the law against murder. But Jesus upends even that assumption by asking if his hearers ever got angry enough to call someone an “idiot.” For even that would make them guilty before God.
