Mark 7




emtv@Mark:7:1 @ Then the Pharisees and some of the scribes gathered together to Him, having come from Jerusalem.

emtv@Mark:7:2 @ Now when they saw some of His disciples eat bread with ceremonially unclean, that is, with unwashed [hands], they found fault.

emtv@Mark:7:3 @ For the Pharisees and all the Jews do not eat unless they wash their hands with [their] fist, holding the tradition of the elders.

emtv@Mark:7:4 @ And [coming] from the marketplace, unless they bathe, they do not eat. And there are many other things which they have received [by tradition], like the washing of cups and pitchers, copper vessels and couches.

emtv@Mark:7:5 @ Then the Pharisees and scribes asked Him, "Why do Your disciples not walk according to the tradition of the elders, but they eat bread with unwashed hands?"

emtv@Mark:7:6 @ And answering He said to them, "Well did Isaiah prophesy about you hypocrites, as it is written: 'This people honors Me with their lips, but their heart is far from Me.

emtv@Mark:7:7 @ And in vain they worship Me, teaching as doctrines the commandments of men.'

emtv@Mark:7:8 @ "For having left the commandment of God, you hold to the tradition of men-the washing of pitchers and cups, and many other similar things you do."

emtv@Mark:7:9 @ And He said to them, "Well do you set aside the commandment of God, so that you may keep your tradition.

emtv@Mark:7:10 @ For Moses said, 'Honor your father and your mother'; and, 'Whoever speaks evil of father or mother, let him surely die.'

emtv@Mark:7:11 @ But you say, 'If a man says to [his] father or to [his ]mother, "Whatever you might be profited by me is Corban"- (that is, a gift),

emtv@Mark:7:12 @ then you no longer allow him to do anything for his father or his mother,

emtv@Mark:7:13 @ [thus] nullifying the word of God by your tradition which you have handed down. And many similar things you do."

emtv@Mark:7:14 @ And having summoned all the crowd, He said to them, "Hear Me, all [of you] and understand:

emtv@Mark:7:15 @ There is nothing from outside a man, that entering into him, can defile him; but the things which come out of him, those are the things that defile a man.

emtv@Mark:7:16 @ If anyone has ears to hear, let him hear!"

emtv@Mark:7:17 @ When He had entered a house [away] from the crowd, His disciples were asking Him about the parable.

emtv@Mark:7:18 @ So He said to them, "Are you also without understanding? Do you not understand that everything entering a man from outside cannot defile him,

emtv@Mark:7:19 @ because it does not enter into his heart but into his stomach, and passes into the latrine, [thus] purifying all foods?"

emtv@Mark:7:20 @ And He said, "That which comes out of a man, that defiles a man.

emtv@Mark:7:21 @ For from within, out of the heart of men, come forth evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders,

emtv@Mark:7:22 @ thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lewdness, an evil eye, blasphemy, arrogance, foolishness.

emtv@Mark:7:23 @ All these evil things come from within and defile a man."

emtv@Mark:7:24 @ From there He arose and He went away into the region of Tyre and Sidon. And having entered into a house, He wanted no one to know it, but He was not able to escape notice.

emtv@Mark:7:25 @ For a woman whose young daughter had an unclean spirit heard about Him, and she came and fell at His feet.

emtv@Mark:7:26 @ Now the woman was a Greek, a Syro-Phoenician by race, and she was asking Him to cast the demon out from her daughter.

emtv@Mark:7:27 @ But Jesus said to her, "Let the children be filled first, for it is not good to take the children's bread and throw it to the little dogs."

emtv@Mark:7:28 @ And she answered and said to Him, "Yes, Lord, yet even the little dogs underneath the table eat from the crumbs of the children."

emtv@Mark:7:29 @ Then He said to her, "Because of this saying, go; the demon has gone out of your daughter."

emtv@Mark:7:30 @ And going away to her house, she found the demon having gone out, and her daughter having been placed on the bed.

emtv@Mark:7:31 @ Again, coming out from the region of Tyre and Sidon, He went to the Sea of Galilee, in the midst of the region of Decapolis.

emtv@Mark:7:32 @ Then they brought to Him a deaf man impeded in speech, and they begged Him that He would lay His hand upon him.

emtv@Mark:7:33 @ And when he had taken him aside from the crowd privately, He put His fingers in his ears, and having spit, He touched his tongue.

emtv@Mark:7:34 @ Then looking up into heaven, He sighed, and said to him, "Ephphatha,"that is, "Be opened."

emtv@Mark:7:35 @ Immediately his ears were opened, and the bond of his tongue was loosed, and he was speaking correctly.

emtv@Mark:7:36 @ And He ordered them that they should tell no one; but the more He ordered them, the more exceedingly they would proclaim it.

emtv@Mark:7:37 @ And they were astonished beyond measure, saying, "He has done all things well. He makes both the deaf to hear and the mute to speak."
