Jesus Questions the Messiah and Warns Against Scribes

Mark 12:35-40
35And Jesus answered and was saying as he taught in the sacred place: How do the scribes say that the Christ is the son of David? 36David himself said in the holy Spirit: The Lord said to my Lord, Sit at my right hand until I place your enemies under your feet. 37David himself calls him Lord, and how then is he his son? And the large crowd was listening to him with gladness. 38And in his teaching he was saying, "Beware of the scribes who like to walk about in long robes and to receive salutations in the marketplaces" 39and the seats of honor in the synagogues and the places of honor at dinners 40who devour the houses of widows and for a pretense make long prayers. These will receive a more excessive judgment.
