- 1. Then Pharisees and scribes came to Jesus from Jerusalem, saying,
- 2. "Why do your disciples disobey the tradition of the elders? For they don't wash their hands when they eat bread."
- 3. He answered them, "Why do you also disobey the commandment of God because of your tradition?
- 4. For God commanded, 'Honor your father and your mother,'{Exodus 20:12; Deuteronomy 5:16} and, 'He who speaks evil of father or mother, let him be put to death.'{Exodus 21:17; Leviticus 20:9}
- 5. But you say, 'Whoever may tell his father or his mother, "Whatever help you might otherwise have gotten from me is a gift devoted to God,"
- 6. he shall not honor his father or mother.' You have made the commandment of God void because of your tradition.
- 7. You hypocrites! Well did Isaiah prophesy of you, saying,
- 8. 'These people draw near to me with their mouth, and honor me with their lips; but their heart is far from me.
- 9. And in vain do they worship me, teaching as doctrine rules made by men.'"{Isaiah 29:13}
- 10. He summoned the multitude, and said to them, "Hear, and understand.
- 11. That which enters into the mouth doesn't defile the man; but that which proceeds out of the mouth, this defiles the man."
- 12. Then the disciples came, and said to him, "Do you know that the Pharisees were offended, when they heard this saying?"
- 13. But he answered, "Every plant which my heavenly Father didn't plant will be uprooted.
- 14. Leave them alone. They are blind guides of the blind. If the blind guide the blind, both will fall into a pit."
- 15. Peter answered him, "Explain the parable to us."
- 16. So Jesus said, "Do you also still not understand?
- 17. Don't you understand that whatever goes into the mouth passes into the belly, and then out of the body?
- 18. But the things which proceed out of the mouth come out of the heart, and they defile the man.
- 19. For out of the heart come forth evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, sexual sins, thefts, false testimony, and blasphemies.
- 20. These are the things which defile the man; but to eat with unwashed hands doesn't defile the man."
- 21. Jesus went out from there, and withdrew into the region of Tyre and Sidon.
- 22. Behold, a Canaanite woman came out from those borders, and cried, saying, "Have mercy on me, Lord, you son of David! My daughter is severely demonized!"
- 23. But he answered her not a word. His disciples came and begged him, saying, "Send her away; for she cries after us."
- 24. But he answered, "I wasn't sent to anyone but the lost sheep of the house of Israel."
- 25. But she came and worshiped him, saying, "Lord, help me."
- 26. But he answered, "It is not appropriate to take the children's bread and throw it to the dogs."
- 27. But she said, "Yes, Lord, but even the dogs eat the crumbs which fall from their masters' table."
- 28. Then Jesus answered her, "Woman, great is your faith! Be it done to you even as you desire." And her daughter was healed from that hour.
- 29. Jesus departed there, and came near to the sea of Galilee; and he went up into the mountain, and sat there.
- 30. Great multitudes came to him, having with them the lame, blind, mute, maimed, and many others, and they put them down at his feet. He healed them,
- 31. so that the multitude wondered when they saw the mute speaking, injured whole, lame walking, and blind seeing--and they glorified the God of Israel.
- 32. Jesus summoned his disciples and said, "I have compassion on the multitude, because they continue with me now three days and have nothing to eat. I don't want to send them away fasting, or they might faint on the way."
- 33. The disciples said to him, "Where should we get so many loaves in a deserted place as to satisfy so great a multitude?"
- 34. Jesus said to them, "How many loaves do you have?" They said, "Seven, and a few small fish."
- 35. He commanded the multitude to sit down on the ground;
- 36. and he took the seven loaves and the fish. He gave thanks and broke them, and gave to the disciples, and the disciples to the multitudes.
- 37. They all ate, and were filled. They took up seven baskets full of the broken pieces that were left over.
- 38. Those who ate were four thousand men, besides women and children.
- 39. Then he sent away the multitudes, got into the boat, and came into the borders of Magdala.
