Luke 11:43 *Wo to you Pharisees, because you love the uppermost seats in the synagogues, and salutations in the market-place.

Matthew 22:6.; Mark 12:39.; Luke 20:46.
Salutations in the market-place, etc. 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)
