Matthew 23:16-22
16'Woe to you, blind guides, who are saying, Whoever may swear by the sanctuary, it is nothing, but whoever may swear by the gold of the sanctuary — is debtor!
17Fools and blind! for which [is] greater, the gold, or the sanctuary that is sanctifying the gold?
18'And, whoever may swear by the altar, it is nothing; but whoever may swear by the gift that is upon it — is debtor!
19Fools and blind! for which [is] greater, the gift, or the altar that is sanctifying the gift?
20'He therefore who did swear by the altar, doth swear by it, and by all things on it;
21and he who did swear by the sanctuary, doth swear by it, and by Him who is dwelling in it;
22and he who did swear by the heaven, doth swear by the throne of God, and by Him who is sitting upon it.
