LUKE 11:32

Luke 11:32 Amplified Bible, Classic Edition (AMPC)
32 The men of Nineveh will appear as witnesses at the judgment with this generation and will condemn it; for they repented at the preaching of Jonah, and behold, here is more than Jonah.

LUKE 12:1-3

Luke 12:1-3 Amplified Bible, Classic Edition (AMPC)
12 In the meanwhile, when so many thousands of the people had gathered that they were trampling on one another, Jesus commenced by saying primarily to His disciples, Be on your guard against the leaven (ferment) of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy [producing unrest and violent agitation].
2 Nothing is [so closely] covered up that it will not be revealed, or hidden that it will not be known.
3 Whatever you have spoken in the darkness shall be heard and listened to in the light, and what you have whispered in [people’s] ears and behind closed doors will be proclaimed upon the housetops.

Describe Jesus’ teaching on hypocrisy of the Pharisees

They neglected the needs of the poor but stressed on external observance of the law
They gave temple offering but neglected justice and love from God
They demanded to be treated with honour for example, the best seats to be reserved for them
They demanded public recognition yet their hearts were evil
They overburden the people with strict observance of the laws and traditions
They persecuted and killed God’s prophets and messengers
They misinterpreted the Mosaic Law and therefore denied the true knowledge of the will of God
