Luke 16:14-17

English Standard Version

The Law and the Kingdom of God

^14 (A)The Pharisees, who were ^(B)lovers of money, heard all these things, and they ^(C)ridiculed him. ¹⁵ And he said to them, “You are those who ^(D)justify yourselves before men, but ^(E)God knows your hearts. For what is exalted among men ^(F)is an abomination in the sight of God.

^16 (G)“The Law and the Prophets were until John; since then ^(H)the good news of the kingdom of God is preached, and ^(I)everyone forces his way into it.^{[a] 17} But ^(J)it is easier for heaven and earth to pass away than for one dot of the Law to become void.
