  • Matt 15:1-9 : 1 Then some Pharisees and teachers of the law came to Jesus from Jerusalem and said, 2 “Why do your disciples break the tradition of the elders? They do not wash their hands before they eat.” 3 Jesus replied, “And why do you break the command of God for the sake of your tradition? 4 For God said, ‘Honor your father and mother’ and ‘Whoever speaks evil of father or mother must be put to death.’ 5 But you say that if anyone declares to their father or mother, ‘What you would have received from me is a gift devoted to God,’ 6 they are not to honor their father or mother with it. Thus you nullify the word of God for the sake of your tradition. 7 You hypocrites! Isaiah was right when he prophesied about you, saying, 8 ‘These people honor me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me. 9 They worship me in vain; their teachings are merely human rules.’ 10 Jesus called the crowd to him and said, “Listen and understand: 11 What goes into someone’s mouth does not defile them, but what comes out of their mouth, that is what defiles them.” 12 Then the disciples came to him and told him, “Do you know that the Pharisees were offended when they heard this?” 13 He answered, “Every plant that my heavenly Father has not planted will be pulled up by the roots. 14 Leave them alone; they are blind guides. If the blind lead the blind, both will fall into a pit.” 15 Then Peter spoke up and said to him, “Explain this parable to us.” 16 Jesus replied, “Are you still without understanding?” 17 Don’t you see that whatever enters the mouth goes into the stomach and then is expelled into the latrine? 18 But the things that come out of the mouth come from the heart, and these defile a person. 19 For out of the heart come evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, sexual immoralities, thefts, false testimonies, and slanders. 20 These are the things that defile a person, but eating with unwashed hands does not defile them.”
