On this verse

Draft selections — awaiting the founder’s edit.

But this people--literally, "multitude," meaning the ignorant rabble. (Pity these important distinctions, so marked in the original of this Gospel, should not be also in our version.) knoweth not the law--that is, by school learning, which only subverted it by human traditions. are cursed--a cursed set (a kind of swearing at them, out of mingled rage and scorn).
