Matthew 23:17

Made Simple — Modern English Translation

Translated by Verse Made Simple Editorial
KJV ORIGINAL
Ye fools and blind: for whether is greater, the gold, or the temple that sanctifieth the gold?
Close to the original. Clear modern English.
✦ MADE SIMPLE

You're being foolish and missing the point completely: what's more important — the gold itself, or the temple that makes the gold sacred in the first place?

⚡ THE BOTTOM LINE

You're focused on the wrong thing — it's not about the treasure, it's about what makes it treasured.
