Then came together
unto
him
the Pharisees
, and
certain
of the scribes
, which came
from
Jerusalem
.
And when they saw
some
of his
disciples
eat
bread
with defiled
, that is to say
, with unwashen
, hands
, they found fault
.
For the Pharisees
, and
all
the Jews
, except
they wash
their hands
oft
, eat
not
, holding
the tradition
of the elders
.
And when they come from
the market
, except
they wash
, they eat
not
. And
many
other things
there be
, which
they have received
to hold
, as the washing
of cups
, and
pots
,
brasen vessels
, and
of tables
.
Then the Pharisees
and
scribes
asked
him
, Why
walk
not
thy
disciples
according
to the tradition
of the elders
, but
eat
bread
with unwashen
hands
?
He answered and
said
unto them
,
Well
hath Esaias
prophesied
of
you
hypocrites
, as
it is written
, This
people
honoureth
me
with their lips
, but
their
heart
is
far
from
me
.
Howbeit in vain
do they worship
me
, teaching
for doctrines
the commandments
of men
.
For laying aside
the commandment
of God
, ye hold
the tradition
of men
, as the washing
of pots
and
cups
: and
many
other
such
like things
ye do
.
And he said
unto them
, Full well
ye reject
the commandment
of God
, that
ye may keep
your own
tradition
.
For Moses
said
, Honour
thy
father
and
thy
mother
; and
, Whoso curseth
father
or
mother
, let him die
the death
:
But ye
say
, If
a man
shall say
to his father
or
mother
, It is Corban
, that is to say
, a gift
, by
whatsoever
thou mightest be profited by
me
; he shall be free .
And ye suffer
him
no more
to do
ought
for his
father
or
his
mother
;
Making the word
of God
of none effect
through your
tradition
, which
ye have delivered
: and
many
such
like things
do ye
.
And when he had called
all
the people
unto him , he said
unto them
, Hearken
unto me
every one
of you , and
understand
:
There is nothing
from without
a man
, that
entering
into
him
can
defile
him
: but
the things which come
out of
him
, those
are they
that defile
the man
.
If any man have
ears
to hear
, let him hear
.
And when
he was entered
into
the house
from
the people
, his
disciples
asked
him
concerning
the parable
.
And he saith
unto them
, Are
ye
so
without understanding
also
? Do ye
not
perceive
, that
whatsoever thing
from without
entereth
into
the man
, it cannot
defile
him
;
Because it entereth
not
into
his
heart
, but
into
the belly
, and
goeth out
into
the draught
, purging
all
meats
?
And he said
,
That which cometh
out of
the man
, that
defileth
the man
.
For from within
, out of
the heart
of men
, proceed
evil
thoughts
, adulteries
, fornications
, murders
,
Thefts, covetousness
, wickedness
, deceit
, lasciviousness
, an evil
eye
, blasphemy
, pride
, foolishness
:
All these
evil things
come
from within
, and
defile
the man
.
And from thence
he arose
, and went
into
the borders
of Tyre
and
Sidon
, and
entered
into
an house
, and would have
no man
know
it : but
he could
not
be hid
.
For a certain woman
, whose
young daughter
had
an unclean
spirit
, heard
of
him
, and came
and fell
at
his
feet
:
The woman
was
a Greek
, a Syrophenician
by nation
; and
she besought
him
that
he would cast forth
the devil
out of
her
daughter
.
But Jesus
said
unto her
, Let
the children
first
be filled
: for
it is
not
meet
to take
the children's
bread
, and
to cast
it unto the dogs
.
And she answered
and
said
unto him
, Yes
, Lord
: yet
the dogs
under
the table
eat
of
the children's
crumbs
.
And he said
unto her
, For
this
saying
go thy way
; the devil
is gone
out of
thy
daughter
.
And when she was come
to
her
house
, she found
the devil
gone out
, and
her daughter
laid
upon
the bed
.
And again
, departing
from
the coasts
of Tyre
and
Sidon
, he came
unto
the sea
of Galilee
, through
the midst
of the coasts
of Decapolis
.
And they bring
unto him
one that was deaf
, and had an impediment in his speech
; and
they beseech
him
to
put
his hand
upon him
.
And he took
him
aside
from
the multitude
, and put
his
fingers
into
his
ears
, and
he spit
, and touched
his
tongue
;
And looking up
to
heaven
, he sighed
, and
saith
unto him
, Ephphatha
, that is
, Be opened
.
And straightway
his
ears
were opened
, and
the string
of his
tongue
was loosed
, and
he spake
plain
.
And he charged
them
that
they should tell
no man
: but
the more
he
charged
them
, so much the more
a great deal
they published
it ;
And were beyond measure
astonished
, saying
, He hath done
all things
well
: he maketh
both
the deaf
to hear
, and
the dumb
to speak
.
