Note 1 at Lu 11:38: A sure sign of the error of legalism is misplaced priorities, as we see here with these Pharisees. It is not recorded in Scripture that the Pharisees marveled at the wonderful works of Jesus. They were too busy looking for something to criticize (Mr 3:2). But they marveled at Jesus not washing His hands. This is a classic example of those who "strain at a gnat, and swallow a camel" (Mt 23:24).
