Matthew 23:16

Woe to you [expression of intense despair],
you blind leaders. [Here, the term "hypocrites" is not used, but rather "blind guides," the same language used in Matt. 15:14.]
You say, "If anyone swears by the temple, it means nothing. But if anyone swears by the gold in the temple, he is bound by his oath.
