Normally speaking, no one would be thinking of plotting against another person and thinking of how to destroy another person.
Those who think of plotting against others so as to destroy them can be said to be wicked people.
Even though there might be reasons for doing so, still it is not something an ordinary person would do.
Much less would we expect religious and pious people to do so.
But that was what the Pharisees, who were looked up to as religious people, were doing to Jesus.
They were plotting and discussing how to destroy Him.
This may make us aware that evil knows no status or religious affiliation.
Anyone can be tempted to do evil and try to destroy good people.
Let us continue to pray that our Lord God will protect us from the snares of the devil.
May we never think of destroying goodness but always live our lives in truth and love.
