came together unto him the Pharisees ,
and certain of the scribes ,
which came from Jerusalem .

For Moses said ,
Honour thy father and thy mother ;
and ,

let him (

that can defile him ,

Are ye without vnderstanding also ?
Doe ye not knowe that whatsoeuer thing from without entreth into a man ,
cannot defile him ,

Because it entereth not into his heart ,
but into the belly ,
and goeth out into the draught , (

For that which goes into the draught purges all meats .(:

That which commeth out of man ,
