The chief seats in the synagogues ( tēn prōtokathedrian en tais sunagōgais ).

Singular here, plural in Mat 23:6. This semi-circular bench faced the congregation. Mat 23:6 has also the chief place at feasts given by Luke also in that discourse (Luk 20:46) as well as in Luk 14:7, a marked characteristic of the Pharisees.

Pharisees ( τοῖς Φαρισαίοις )

See Poole on "Mat 23:6" , See Poole on "Mat 23:7" . Their fault was not in their taking them, but in their affecting them, and in being ambitious of them. God is the God of order, and we are bound to give honour to whom honour belongs; but pride and ambition are detestable sins, especially in such as should be teachers of humility, and the vanity of all things below.

Haydock: Luk 11:43 - -- Salutations in the market-place, &c. Such as wish to be saluted, and have the first places, that they may appear great, are likened to sepulchres, w...

Salutations in the market-place, &c. Such as wish to be saluted, and have the first places, that they may appear great, are likened to sepulchres, which are covered externally with ornaments, but are filled inwardly with rottenness. (St. Cyril in St. Thomas Aquinas)
