# 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.
Sometimes people fasted and let their face and hair look dirty when they were very sorry for their sins. But hypocrites made their faces look dirty because they wanted other people to know that they were fasting and to think that they were very good. Alternate translation: "they make their faces look dirty" or "they put ashes on their faces"
# Truly I say to you
"I tell you the truth." This phrase adds emphasis to what Jesus says next.
