Matthew 23:18-21

And [you scribes and Pharisees say], ‘Whoever swears [an oath]by the altar, that is nothing (non-binding), but whoever swears [an oath]by the offering on it, he is obligated [as a debtor to fulfill his vow and keep his promise].’ You [spiritually]blind men, which is more important, the offering, or the altar that sanctifies the offering? Therefore, whoever swears [an oath]by the altar, swears both by it and by everything [offered] on it. And whoever swears [an oath]by the sanctuary of the temple, swears by it and by Him who dwells within it. [1 Kin 8:13; Ps 26:8]
