"Woe unto them that are wise in their own eyes, and prudent in their own sight!"
Commentary
Gill's Exposition
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. This is a true description of the Scribes and Pharisees in Christ's time; who said, "dost thou teach us? are we blind also?" 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.
