How is the teaching of the Pharisees and Saducees like yeast?
The teaching of the Pharisees and the Sadducees spreads into the multitude like yeast while it is not the right teaching the way yeast would make a small amount of flour big.

a little bit of yeast can make flour and water expand into a batch of dough. This is like the dishonest teaching of the Pharisees and Saducees, even a little bit of wickedness can expand to corrupt us.

It`s a wrong yeast that kills life that does not bring out the full and real menaing of the taeching but blinds. The dough cannot rise. The unleavened kind of bread comes to mind...it`s flat cause the Law of Love, the loving application of the Law has not vivified it. And it`s not bread we are talking about but him the Bread of life and us our divine souls that need that Yeast and that bread ...when you make bread i think you mix some risen ''Jesus'' to the unrisen dough ''us humans''.

The Yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees

The disciples came to the other side and had forgotten to take bread. Jesus said to them, "Take heed and beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees."
They reasoned among themselves, saying, "We brought no bread."
Jesus, perceiving it, said, "Why do you reason among yourselves, you of little faith, 'because you have brought no bread?' Don't you yet perceive, neither remember the five loaves for the five thousand, and how many baskets you took up? Nor the seven loaves for the four thousand, and how many baskets you took up? How is it that you don't perceive that I didn't speak to you concerning bread? But beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees."
Then they understood that he didn't tell them to beware of the yeast of bread, but of the teaching of the Pharisees and Sadducees.
