Rev. Mark Kelderman explains from Matthew 23:1-13, 23-39, the misunderstanding of the Pharisees who thought they were keeping the law, and the correction Jesus provided, along with our guide to salvation living. “He has told you, O man, what is good; and what does the Lord require of you but to to do justice. and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God?”
