Matthew 15:15-17

15:15 But Peter ¹  said to him, “Explain this parable to us.” 15:16 Jesus ²  said, “Even after all this, are you still so foolish? 15:17 Don’t you understand that whatever goes into the mouth enters the stomach and then passes out into the sewer? ³ 

[15:15]  ¹ tn Grk “And answering, Peter said to him.” This construction is somewhat redundant in English and has been simplified in the translation.

[15:16]  ² tn Grk “he”; the referent (Jesus) has been specified in the translation for clarity. Here δέ (de) has not been translated.

[15:17]  ³ tn Or “into the latrine.”
