Disciples paraphrased: Hey like, Master.. Uhhh Mr. Jesus, Leader of team-impact, “Do You realize You offended the Pharisees by what You just said?"
Guys, fishers, disciples opposed to all ditch-diving?
“Did you know how upset the Pharisees were when they heard what you said?” (Msg). “deeply offended by“ (Phl). “and indignant when they heard“ (AMP)
“Pharisees are angry because of what you said“ (ICB).
Jesus: ”..Ignore them. They are blind guides leading the blind and if one blind person guides another, they will both fall into a ditch." That's our Hero, the non-PC-Christ (Matthew 15:12,14)
“Every plant not planted by my heavenly Father will be uprooted, so ignore them. They are blind guides leading the blind” (NLT). Misery loves company. Ditch-divers, religious pit-lovers.
“..will be torn up by the roots. Let them alone and disregard them; they are blind guides and teachers." False religious teachers. They too seem like they're the same yesterday, today, and forever.
