Matthew 15:1-20
  • 1Then Pharisees and scribes came to Jesus from Jerusalem and said,
  • 2"Why do your disciples break the tradition of the elders? For they do not wash their hands when they eat."
  • 3He answered them, "And why do you break the commandment of God for the sake of your tradition?
  • 4For God commanded, 'Honor your father and your mother,' and, 'Whoever reviles father or mother must surely die.'
  • 5But you say, 'If anyone tells his father or his mother, "What you would have gained from me is given to God,"
  • 6he need not honor his father.' So for the sake of your tradition you have made void the word of God.
  • 7You hypocrites! Well did Isaiah prophesy of you, when he said:
  • 8"'This people honors me with their lips, but their heart is far from me;
  • 9in vain do they worship me, teaching as doctrines the commandments of men.'"
  • 10And he called the people to him and said to them, "Hear and understand:
  • 11it is not what goes into the mouth that defiles a person, but what comes out of the mouth; this defiles a person."
  • 12Then the disciples came and said to him, "Do you know that the Pharisees were offended when they heard this saying?"
  • 13He answered, "Every plant that my heavenly Father has not planted will be rooted up.
  • 14Let them alone; they are blind guides. And if the blind lead the blind, both will fall into a pit."
  • 15But Peter said to him, "Explain the parable to us."
  • 16And he said, "Are you also still without understanding?
  • 17Do you not see that whatever goes into the mouth passes into the stomach and is expelled?
  • 18But what comes out of the mouth proceeds from the heart, and this defiles a person.
  • 19For out of the heart come evil thoughts, murder, adultery, sexual immorality, theft, false witness, slander.
  • 20These are what defile a person. But to eat with unwashed hands does not defile anyone."
