5Then the Pharisees and scribes asked him, Why walk not thy disciples according to the tradition of the elders, but eat bread with unwashen hands?Select Mark 7:5

6He answered and said unto them, Well hath Esaias prophesied of you hypocrites, as it is written, This people honoureth me with their lips, but their heart is far from me.Select Mark 7:6

7Howbeit in vain do they worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.Select Mark 7:7

8For laying aside the commandment of God, ye hold the tradition of men, as the washing of pots and cups: and many other such like things ye do.Select Mark 7:8

9And he said unto them, Full well ye reject the commandment of God, that ye may keep your own tradition.Select Mark 7:9
