noyes Matthew:15:1-20
noyes@Matthew:15:1 @ Then come to Jesus Pharisees and scribes from Jerusalem, saying,
noyes@Matthew:15:2 @ Why do thy disciples transgress the tradition of the elders? for they wash not their hands when they eat bread.
noyes@Matthew:15:3 @ But he answered and said to them, Why do ye too transgress the commandment of God for the sake of your tradition?
noyes@Matthew:15:4 @ For God commanded, saying, "Honor thy father and thy mother;" and, "He that curseth father or mother, let him surely die."
noyes@Matthew:15:5 @ But ye say, Whoever shall say to his father or his mother, Whatever thou mightst receive in aid from me is a gift,
noyes@Matthew:15:6 @ he shall not honor his father or his mother. Thus have ye made void the law of God for the sake of your tradition.
noyes@Matthew:15:7 @ Hypocrites! well did Isaiah prophesy concerning you, saying,
noyes@Matthew:15:8 @ "This people honoreth me with their lips, but their heart is far from me.
noyes@Matthew:15:9 @ But in vain do they worship me, teaching as doctrines the commandments of men."
noyes@Matthew:15:10 @ And calling the multitude, he said to them, Hear, and understand.
noyes@Matthew:15:11 @ Not that which goeth into the mouth defileth a man; but that which cometh out of the mouth, this defileth a man.
noyes@Matthew:15:12 @ Then come the disciples, and say to him, Dost thou know that the Pharisees were offended, when they heard that saying?
noyes@Matthew:15:13 @ But he answered and said, Every plant which my heavenly Father did not plant will be rooted up.
noyes@Matthew:15:14 @ Let them alone; they are blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind lead the blind, both will fall into a ditch.
noyes@Matthew:15:15 @ And Peter answering said to him, Explain to us that dark saying.
noyes@Matthew:15:16 @ And he said, Are ye too still without discernment?
noyes@Matthew:15:17 @ Do ye not understand, that whatever entereth the mouth goeth into the stomach, and is cast out into the drain?
noyes@Matthew:15:18 @ But the things which proceed from the mouth come out of the heart; and these defile a man.
noyes@Matthew:15:19 @ For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false testimony, blasphemies.
noyes@Matthew:15:20 @ These are the things which defile a man; but to eat with unwashed hands defileth not a man.
