2 “Why do Your disciples transgress the tradition of the elders? Because they do not wash their hands when they eat bread.”

3 But He answered and said to them, “Why do you also transgress the commandment of God by your tradition?

4 Because God commanded, saying, Honour your father and mother; and, He that curses father or mother, let him be put to death.

5 But you say, ‘Whosoever says to his father or his mother, “Whatever gain you may have received from me has become an offering,”

6 and then he does not need to honour his father or his mother.’ Thus have you have made the commandment of God of no effect by your tradition.

8 ‘These people draw near to Me with their mouth, and honour Me with their lips, but their heart is far from Me.

9 But in vain they do worship Me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.’”

11 Not what goes into the mouth defiles a man; but what comes out of the mouth, this defiles a man.”

12 Then His disciples came and said to Him, “Do You know that the Pharisees were offended when they heard this saying?”

13 But He answered and said, “Every plant which My heavenly Father has not planted will be uprooted.

14 Leave them alone. They are blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind leads the blind, both will fall into a ditch.”

17 Do you still not understand that whatever enters in at the mouth goes into the stomach, and is cast out into the drain?

18 But those things which come out of the mouth come from the heart, and they defile a man.

19 For out of the heart comes evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies.

20 These are the things which defile a man: but to eat with unwashed hands does not defile a man.
