I do believe Jehovah exists and knows who we are, and I am grateful. No doubt some of the old men in Brooklyn worry that He knows who they are also. Regarding them and the hypocrites and pharisees that serve them Jesus said:

31 Therefore YOU are bearing witness against yourselves that YOU are sons of those who murdered the prophets. 32 Well, then, fill up the measure of YOUR forefathers.

33 "Serpents, offspring of vipers, how are YOU to flee from the judgment of Ge·hen'na?

I think the part that bears witness best as to who and what they are is the lack of love they show the rest of mankind. Their words are poisonous like serpents. They are so full of themselves, as evidenced by Big Ray and the Boy's discussion of dividing up the loot and getting rid of the bodies. Try this on for a fit:

YOU have disregarded the weightier matters of the Law, namely, justice and mercy and faithfulness. These things it was binding to do, yet not to disregard the other things. 24 Blind guides, who strain out the gnat but gulp down the camel!

Sounds like some New York boys to me.
