Blind to Mercy
The religious leaders in Jesus’ day loved to enforce their own extensive lists of rules and regulations and hammer anyone who didn’t live up to their standards. Jesus said that these people were blind and were leading other blind people into a ditch. They were blind to that fact that God is God of mercy and compassion and they were blind to their own failing and need for grace. We often take up the same judgmental attitude as the Pharisees, vilifying our opponents and painting ourselves as the good guys. Jesus commands us to stop judging and condemning people and instead by merciful and forgiving like our Father in heaven because we are all sinners and in desperate need of His mercy, grace, and forgiveness.

Righteousness
We’re all starved for someone outside of us who is greater than us to say we’re wanted, we’re accepted, and we’re right in their eyes. This is a universal need. How do we deal with our need to feel justified? How do we deal with our universal need to be made right, to be counted as right? This is what the parable is all about.

There is a strong temptation for every Christian to put forth an alter-ego, to present an idealized picture of the super-Christian -- more holy, righteous, and upright than we really are. God wants holiness from us, but he also desires that it is authentic and comes from the heart.
