They come from here, I can't understand them. Maybe they are idioms. Please help!

如今已经在金陵广为流传了，巧辨玉石，油锅洗手，见所未见，神乎其神，怕都被人编...

Answer 1

Yes, they are idioms. They literally mean "distinguish jades skillfully and wash hands in oil pan".

you have to deduct the exact moral in context.

Answer 2

Could you please give more information like the context, give the whole paragraph instead of just one sentence?  

Answer 3

巧辨玉石:identify jade and stone

油锅洗手:wash hands in oil pan

They are not idioms,they are the names of two stories.
