In reply, the crowd asked him what they should do.On the other hand, Matthew only had John the Baptist accuse the Pharisees and Sadducees of being a generation of vipers, who flee the wrath to come. The crowd was not implicated and did not respond. The author of Matthew was taking pains to focus his criticisms on the Pharisees and Sadducees, rather than on the Jews as a whole.
