Woe unto therm that are wise in their own eyes,.... And yet betray such stupidity and sottishness, as to call things by their wrong names; and make such a perverse judgment of them, as before described.

Joh 9:34
.
and prudent in their own sight; being wise above what was written; leaving the word of God, and following the traditions of the elders.
