Tyranny Under a Show of Piety

This was the condition of the Jewish people when Christ came: "Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye devour widows' houses, and for a pretense make long prayers; therefore shall ye receive the greater damnation." Matt. 23:14. The cruelest tyranny and oppression was connected with the greatest show of piety. A solemn, fearful doom awaits all such.
