Matthew 23:19-23

You blind men, which is more important, the offering or the altar that sanctifies the offering?

Therefore, the one who swears by the altar, swears both by the altar and by everything on it.

And the one who swears by the temple, swears both by the temple and by Him who dwells in it.

And the one who swears by heaven, swears both by the throne of God and by Him who sits upon it.

“Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you tithe mint and dill and cumin, and have neglected the weightier provisions of the Law: justice and mercy and faithfulness; but these are the things you should have done without neglecting the others.
