‏ Romans 2:21-22

v. 21: But Paul challenges them: “You, therefore, who teach another, do you not teach yourself? You who preach that a man should not steal, do you steal?” (Romans 2:21 ^a). He points out their hypocrisy—teaching others but not following the law themselves.

v. 22: “You who say, ‘Do not commit adultery,’ do you commit adultery? You who abhor idols, do you rob temples?” (Romans 2:22 ^b). Paul shows that they break the very commands they claim to teach.
