Why did Jesus call the Pharisees blind? What were they unable to see?

They are called blind because they had not seen the truth. They were blinded by their tradition and doctrine made by men. By the traditions of the eldels, not only the word of God was perverted, but his worship also was greatly corrupted.

Why does Jesus call Love One Another a New commandment?

It is a New commandment because the Law of Moses says: An eye for an eye; a tooth for a tooth the Old law gives instructions of the punishment for the offender to give justice to the offended. On the other hand, Jesus introduced the commandment Love one another giving emphasis on compassion and mercy. Therefore, it doesn`t matter who the oppressor or the oppressed is. Everyone is asked to love his brother. It does not only ask us to stop hurting each other but goes further by asking us to love or do good to others''and yes, that includes our enemies''... The Old law is not violated but rather revised to a better one. It teaches us to forgive rather than to seek revenge. How then will the oppressed get justice? Our Father, the God of Justice, will take care of that...
