1 Then the Pharisees and the Sadducees came, with a captious design, and desired him to show them some miracle in the sky. 2 but he answered them, in the evening you foretel fair weather: when the sky is of a bright red. 3 and in the morning, a foul day: when the sky is of a dusky red, hypocrites, can ye judge of the appearance of the sky, and yet not discern the signs of these times? 4 a wicked degenerate race demand a miracle; but no miracle shall they have beside that of the prophet Jonas, and so leaving them, he went away. 5 Now at their departure to go to the other side, his disciples had forgot to take bread. 6 and Jesus said to them, have a care of the leaven of the Pharisees, and of the Sadducees. 7 upon which they said to one another, this comes from our not taking any bread. 8 which Jesus perceiving, he said, distrustful men, why do ye trouble your heads about forgetting the bread? 9 where's your understanding? don't you remember the five loaves among five thousand and how many baskets ye took away? 10 nor the seven loaves among the four thousand, and how many baskets ye carried away? 11 why, can't you perceive, that in cautioning you to beware of the leaven of the Pharisees, and of the Sadducees, I did not speak of bread?
