and exactly what jesus said is not certain but he seems to have implied that he came to talk with the sisters and that he cared much more for talk ing with them than for an elaborate eal martha was bssy preparing no end of dishes but one simple dish would be quite enough and mary who presumably understands this is not to be disturbed martha has not re ceived much sympathy from bible readers and preachers but her rebuke if it is a rebuke is a very gentle on iv would be a mistake to say that martha represents practical religion and mary contemplative religion and to argue that jesus prefers the latter this is not an allegory about religion but a real story about two sister martha wanted to do honor to jesus but he would be more honored by a simple meal and friendly talk with the sisters than by a pretentious banquet taking long to prepare and leaving little time for more important things if the pharisees and scribes 11 421 1 5254 christs denunciations of the pharisees arc not altogether easy to iterpret there can be little doubt that many of the pharuees were sin cere and religious men such as saul of tarsus it is not likely therefore that jesus denounced them all indis criminately and laid at their door these serious charges that there was among them much selfdeception playacting or hypocrisy lack of moral perspective and the curious spiritual blindness which not rarely afflicts hard and good men the de- runciations and pauls letters amply testify but it is not necessary to sup pose that jesus made all these de nunciation at the same time or that ho included
