The Pharisees and the scribes were grumbling and saying, "This fellow welcomes sinners and eats with them." Luke 15:1-2 Jesus’s habit of hanging around undesirables seems to have been a continual source of angst for all those looking for a reason not to like him. Actually it’s usually easy to spot what’s wrong with someone else…maybe that’s the reason Jesus asks why we see the speck of sawdust in another’s eye but pay no attention to the plank in our own eye.

Noticias Re"Mark"ados (anuncios en español) Together in Faith: When Jesus noticed how the dinner guests chose the places of honor, he told them a parable. Luke 14:7 To no surprise, Jesus' parable encouraged his listeners to seek a humble place seems totally old-fashioned...but it was apparently old-fashioned even in Jesus' time!
