Φαρισαῖος
Pharisaîos
G5330 · Greek
Separatist, religious sectarian. Pharisaios. The Pharisees prized external separation and legal precision above all else, yet Jesus reserved his sharpest rebukes for them. Religion without mercy becomes its own kind of lawlessness. Guard your heart against the pride of the set-apart.
