Now the Pharisees ,
and some scribes who came from Jerusalem ,
resorted to Jesus .
*
And observing some of his disciples eating with impure hands ,
that is ,
unwashed hands ;
* (
for the Pharisees ,
and indeed all the Jews who observed the tradition of the elders ,
eat not until they have washed their hands by pouring a little water upon them :
*
and if they be come from the market ,
by dipping them ;
and many other usages there are ,
which they have adopted ,
as immersions of cups and pots ,
and brazen vessels and beds :)
*
then the Pharisees and Scribes asked him ,
Whence comes it that your disciples observe not the tradition of the elders ,
but eat with unwashed hands ?
*
He answering ,
said to them ,

Then having called the whole multitude ,

When he had withdrawn from the people into a house ,

Then he arose ,
and went to the frontiers of Tyre and Sidon ;
and having entered a house ,
he desired that none might know of him ;
but he could not be concealed .
*
For a woman whose little daughter had an unclean spirit ,
hearing of him ,
came and threw herself at his feet ,
* (
the woman was a Greek ,
a native of Syrophenicia ,)
and entreated him that he would cast the demon out of her daughter .
*
Jesus answered ,
*
She replied ,
True ,
Sir ;
yet even the dogs under the table eat of the children '
s crumbs .
*
He said to her ,
*
Immediately she went home ,
and found her daughter lying upon the bed ,
and freed from the demon .
*
Then leaving the borders of Tyre and Sidon ,
he returned to the sea of Galilee ,
through the precincts of Decapolis .
*
And they brought to him a deaf man ,
who had also an impediment in his speech ,
and entreated him to lay his hand upon him .
*
Jesus having taken him aside from the crowd ,
spit upon his own fingers ,
and put them into the man '
s ears ,
and touched his tongue .
*
Then looking up to heaven ,
and sighing ,
he said ,
that is ,
*
Immediately his ears were opened ,
and his tongue loosed ,
and he spoke distinctly .
*
He charged them to tell no person :
but the more he charged them ,
the more they published it ,
*
saying with inexpressible amazement ,
He does everything well :
he makes both the deaf to hear ,
and the dumb to speak .
