007:008 "You neglect God's Commandment: you hold fast to men's traditions."
007:009 "Praiseworthy indeed!" He added, "to set at nought
God's Commandment in order to observe your own traditions!
007:010 For Moses said, 'Honour thy father and thy mother' and again,
'He who curses father or mother, let him die the death.'
007:011 But *you* say, 'If a man says to his father or mother, It is a Korban (that is, a thing devoted to God), whatever it is, which otherwise you would have received from me—'
007:012 And so you no longer allow him to do anything for his
father or mother,
007:013 thus nullifying God's precept by your tradition which you
have handed down. And many things of that kind you do."
007:014 Then Jesus called the people to Him again. "Listen to me,
all of you," He said, "and understand.
007:015 There is nothing outside a man which entering him can make him unclean; but it is the things which come out of a man that make him unclean."
007:016 []
007:017 After He had left the crowd and gone indoors, His disciples began to ask Him about this figure of speech.
