Our Saviour did not encourage any to attend the rabbinical schools of His day for the reason that their minds would be corrupted with the continually repeated, “They say,” or, “It has been said.” Why, then, should we accept the unstable words of men as exalted wisdom, when a greater, a certain wisdom is at our command? {8T 310.2}

Vor Frelser opmuntrede ingen til at gå i den tids rabinerskoler, af den grund af de ville blive fordærvede med de konstante gentagelser: "De siger," eller, "Det er blevet sagt." Hvorfor skulle vi da tage imod menneskers usikre ord som ophøjet visdom, når en større, en sikker visdom er til rådighed?
