Woe to you! You build¹ the tombs of the prophets whom your ancestors² killed.

NET Notes

¹sn The effect of what the experts in the law were doing was to deny the message of the prophets and thus honor their death by supporting those who had sought their removal. The charge that this is what previous generations did shows the problem is chronic. As T. W. Manson said, the charge here is “The only prophet you honor is a dead prophet!” (The Sayings of Jesus, 101).

²tn Or “forefathers”; Grk “fathers.”
