# General Information:

Jesus is talking to a group of people about what they as individuals should or should not do. All occurences of "you" are plural. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-you]])

# Connecting Statement:

Jesus begins to teach about fasting.

# they disfigure their faces

The hypocrites would not wash their faces and would not comb their hair. They did this purposely to draw attention to themselves so that people would see them and give them honor for fasting.

# Truly I say to you

"I tell you the truth." This phrase adds emphasis to what Jesus says next.
