Mark 7:2-13

LITV(i) 2 And seeing some of His disciples eating bread with unclean, that is unwashed hands, they found fault. 3 For the Pharisees and all the Jews do not eat unless they immerse the hands with the fist, holding the tradition of the elders. 4 And coming from the market, they do not eat without immersing. And there are many other things which they received to hold: dippings of cups, and of utensils, and of copper vessels, and couches. 5 Then the Pharisees and scribes questioned Him, Why do your disciples not walk according to the tradition of the elders, but eat bread with unwashed hands? 6 And answering, He said to them, Well did Isaiah prophesy concerning you, hypocrites; as it has been written: "This people honors Me with the lips, but their heart is far away from Me; 7 and in vain they worship Me, teaching as doctrines the commandments of men." Isa. 29:13 8 For forsaking the commandment of God, you hold the tradition of men: dippings of utensils and cups, and many other such like things you do. 9 And He said to them, Do you do well to set aside the commandment of God so that you may keep your tradition? 10 For Moses said, "Honor your father and your mother;" Ex. 20:12; Deut. 5:16 and, "The one speaking evil of father or mother, let him expire by death." Ex. 21:17 11 But you say, If a man says to his father or mother, Corban, (which is, A gift!) whatever you may profit by me. 12 And you no longer allow him to do anything for his father or mother, 13 making the Word of God of no effect by your tradition which you delivered. And many such like things you do.
