(Mk 7:1) Then the Pharisees, and some of the scribes gathered together to him, having come from Jerusalem.
(Mk 7:2) Now when they saw some of his disciples eating bread with defiled, that is, unwashed, hands, they found fault.
(Mk 7:3) (For the Pharisees, and all the Jews, don't eat unless they wash their hands and forearms, holding to the tradition of the elders.
(Mk 7:4) They don't eat when they come from the marketplace, unless they bathe themselves, and there are many other things, which they have received to hold to: washings of cups, pitchers, bronze vessels, and couches.)
(Mk 7:5) The Pharisees and the scribes asked him, "Why don't your disciples walk according to the tradition of the elders, but eat their bread with unwashed hands?"
(Mk 7:6) He answered them, "Well did Isaiah prophesy of you hypocrites, as it is written, 'This people honors me with their lips, but their heart is far from me.
(Mk 7:7) But in vain do they worship me, teaching as doctrines the commandments of men.'
(Mk 7:8) "For you set aside the commandment of God, and hold tightly to the tradition of men--the washing of pitchers and cups, and you do many other such things."
(Mk 7:9) He said to them, "Full well do you reject the commandment of God, that you may keep your tradition.
(Mk 7:10) For Moses said, 'Honor your father and your mother;' and, 'He who speaks evil of father or mother, let him be put to death.'
(Mk 7:11) But you say, 'If a man tells his father or his mother, "Whatever profit you might have received from me is Corban, that is to say, given to God;"'
(Mk 7:12) then you no longer allow him to do anything for his father or his mother,
(Mk 7:13) making void the word of God by your tradition, which you have handed down. You do many things like this."
(Mk 7:14) He called all the multitude to himself, and said to them, "Hear me, all of you, and understand.
(Mk 7:15) There is nothing from outside of the man, that going into him can defile him; but the things which proceed out of the man are those that defile the man.
(Mk 7:16) If anyone has ears to hear, let him hear!"
(Mk 7:17) When he had entered into a house away from the multitude, his disciples asked him about the parable.
(Mk 7:18) He said to them, "Are you thus without understanding also? Don't you perceive that whatever goes into the man from outside can't defile him,
(Mk 7:19) because it doesn't go into his heart, but into his stomach, then into the latrine, thus purifying all foods?"
(Mk 7:20) He said, "That which proceeds out of the man, that defiles the man.
(Mk 7:21) For from within, out of the hearts of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, sexual sins, murders, thefts,
(Mk 7:22) covetings, wickedness, deceit, lustful desires, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, and foolishness.
(Mk 7:23) All these evil things come from within, and defile the man."
(Mk 7:24) From there he arose, and went away into the borders of Tyre and Sidon. He entered into a house, and didn't want anyone to know it, but he couldn't escape notice.
(Mk 7:25) For a woman, whose little daughter had an unclean spirit, having heard of him, came and fell down at his feet.

(Mk 7:27) But Jesus said to her, "Let the children be filled first, for it is not appropriate to take the children's bread and throw it to the dogs."
(Mk 7:28) But she answered him, "Yes, Lord. Yet even the dogs under the table eat the children's crumbs."
(Mk 7:29) He said to her, "For this saying, go your way. The demon has gone out of your daughter."
(Mk 7:30) She went away to her house, and found the child having been laid on the bed, with the demon gone out.

(Mk 7:32) They brought to him one who was deaf and had an impediment in his speech. They begged him to lay his hand on him.
(Mk 7:33) He took him aside from the multitude, privately, and put his fingers into his ears, and he spat, and touched his tongue.
(Mk 7:34) Looking up to heaven, he sighed, and said to him, "Ephphatha!" that is, "Be opened!"
(Mk 7:35) Immediately his ears were opened, and the impediment of his tongue was released, and he spoke clearly.
(Mk 7:36) He commanded them that they should tell no one, but the more he commanded them, so much the more widely they proclaimed it.
