Matthew 15:19-20
15:19 For out of the heart come evil ideas, murder, adultery, sexual immorality, theft, false testimony, slander.
15:20 These are the things that defile a person; it is not eating with unwashed hands that defiles a person.”
Mark 7:4-13
7:4 And when they come from the marketplace, they do not eat unless they wash. They hold fast to many other traditions: the washing of cups, pots, kettles, and dining couches.

7:5 The Pharisees and the experts in the law asked him, “Why do your disciples not live according to the tradition of the elders, but eat
with unwashed hands?”
7:6 He said to them, “Isaiah prophesied correctly about you hypocrites, as it is written:
‘This people honors me with their lips,
but their heart is far from me.
7:7 They worship me in vain,
teaching as doctrine the commandments of men.’
7:8 Having no regard for the command of God, you hold fast to human tradition.”
7:9 He also said to them, “You neatly reject the commandment of God in order to set up your tradition.
7:10 For Moses said, ‘Honor your father and your mother,’ and, ‘Whoever insults his father or mother must be put to death.’
7:11 But you say that if anyone tells his father or mother, ‘Whatever help you would have received from me is corban’ (that is, a gift for God),
7:12 then you no longer permit him to do anything for his father or mother.
7:13 Thus you nullify the word of God by your tradition that you have handed down. And you do many things like this.”
Luke 11:39-40
11:39 But the Lord said to him, “Now you Pharisees clean
the outside of the cup and the plate, but inside you are full of greed and wickedness.
11:40 You fools!
Didn’t the one who made the outside make the inside as well?
