| 1 | Then Pharisees and scribes come to Jesus from Jerusalem, saying, | Mk 7:1-13 |
| 2 | "Why do your disciples disobey the tradition of the elders? For they don`t wash their hands when they eat bread." | Mk 7:2 Mk 7:5 Gn 1:14 Col 2:8 Col 2:20-23 1Pe 1:18 |
| 3 | He answered them, "Why do you also disobey the commandment of God because of your tradition? | Mt 7:3-5 Mk 7:6-8 Mk 7:13-8 Col 2:8 Col 2:23 Tit 1:14 |
| 4 | For God commanded, `Honor your father and your mother,` and, `He who speaks evil of father or mother, let him be put to death.` | Mt 4:10 Mt 5:17-19 Isa 8:20 Ro 3:31 |
| 5 | But you say, `Whoever will tell his father or his mother, "Whatever help you might otherwise have gotten from me is a gift devoted to God," | Mt 23:16-18 Am 7:15-17 Mk 7:10-13 Ac 4:19 Ac 5:29 |
| 6 | he will not honor his father or mother.` You have made the commandment of God void because of your tradition. | 1Ti 5:3 1Ti 5:4 1Ti 5:8 1Ti 5:16 |
| 7 | You hypocrites! Well did Isaiah prophesy of you, saying, | Mt 7:5 Mt 23:23-29 |
| 8 | `These people draw near to me with their mouth, And honor me with their lips; But their heart is far from me. | Isa 29:13 Ezk 33:31 Jn 1:47 1Pe 3:10 |
| 9 | But in vain do they worship me, Teaching as doctrine rules made by men.`" | Ex 20:7 Lv 26:16 Lv 26:20 1Sa 25:21 Ps 39:6 Ps 73:13 Ec 5:2-7 Isa 1:13-15 Isa 58:1-3 Mal 3:14 Mk 7:7 1Co 15:2 Jm 2:20 |
| 10 | He called the multitude to himself, and said to them, "Hear, and understand. | 1Ki 22:28 Mk 7:14 Mk 7:16 Lk 20:45-47 |
| 11 | That which enters into the mouth doesn`t defile the man; but that which proceeds out of the mouth, this defiles the man." | Mk 7:15 Lk 11:38-41 Ac 10:14 Ac 10:15 Ac 11:8 Ac 11:9 Ro 14:14 Ro 14:17 Ro 14:20 1Ti 4:4 1Ti 4:5 Tit 1:15 Heb 13:9 |
| 12 | Then the disciples came, and said to him, "Do you know that the Pharisees were offended, when they heard this saying?" | Mt 17:27 1Ki 22:13 1Ki 22:14 1Co 10:32 1Co 10:33 2Co 6:3 Ga 2:5 Jm 3:17 |
| 13 | But he answered, "Every plant which my heavenly Father didn`t plant will be uprooted. | Mt 13:40 Mt 13:41 Ps 92:13 Isa 60:21 Jn 15:2 Jn 15:6 1Co 3:12-15 |
| 14 | Let them alone. They are blind guides of the blind. If the blind guide the blind, both will fall into a pit." | Hos 4:17 1Ti 6:5 |
| 15 | Peter answered him, "Explain the parable to us." | Mt 13:36 Mk 4:34 Mk 7:17 Jn 16:29 |
| 16 | So Jesus said, "Do you also still not understand? | Mt 15:10 Mt 13:51 Mt 16:9 Mt 16:11 Isa 28:9 Isa 28:10 Mk 6:52 Mk 7:18 Mk 8:17 Mk 8:18 Mk 9:32 Lk 9:45 Lk 18:34 Lk 24:45 Heb 5:12 |
| 17 | Don`t you understand that whatever goes into the mouth passes into the belly, and then out of the body? | Mt 7:19 Mt 7:20 Lk 6:45 1Co 6:13 Col 2:21 Col 2:22 Jm 3:6 |
| 18 | But the things which proceed out of the mouth come forth out of the heart, and they defile the man. | Mt 15:11 Mt 12:34 1Sa 24:13 Ps 36:3 Pr 6:12 Pr 10:32 Pr 15:2 Pr 15:28 Lk 19:22 Jm 3:6-10 Rev 13:5 Rev 13:6 |
| 19 | For out of the heart come forth evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, sexual sins, thefts, false testimony, and blasphemies. | Gn 6:5 Gn 8:21 Pr 4:23 Pr 6:14 Pr 22:15 Pr 24:9 Jer 17:9 Mk 7:21-23 Ro 3:10-19 Ro 7:18 Ro 8:7 Ro 8:8 Ga 5:19-21 Eph 2:1-3 Tit 3:2-6 |
| 20 | These are the things which defile the man; but to eat with unwashed hands doesn`t defile the man." | 1Co 3:16 1Co 3:17 1Co 6:9-11 1Co 6:18-20 Eph 5:3-6 Rev 21:8 Rev 21:27 |
| 21 | Jesus went out from there, and withdrew into the parts of Tyre and Sidon. | Mk 7:24 |
| 22 | Behold, a Canaanite woman came out from those borders, and cried, saying, "Have mercy on me, Lord, you son of David. My daughter is grievously vexed with a demon." | Mt 3:8 Mt 3:9 Ps 45:12 Ezk 3:6 Mk 7:26 |
| 23 | But he answered her not a word. His disciples came and begged him, saying, "Send her away; for she cries after us." | Gn 42:7 Dt 8:2 Ps 28:1 Lam 3:8 |
| 24 | But he answered, "I wasn`t sent to anyone but the lost sheep of the house of Israel." | Mt 9:36 Mt 10:5 Mt 10:6 Isa 53:6 Jer 50:6 Jer 50:7 Ezk 34:5 Ezk 34:6 Ezk 34:16 Ezk 34:23 Lk 15:4-6 Ac 3:25 Ac 3:26 Ac 13:46 Ro 15:8 |
| 25 | But she came and worshipped him, saying, "Lord, help me." | Mt 20:31 Gn 32:26 Hos 12:4 Lk 11:8-10 Lk 18:1-8 |
| 26 | But he answered, "It is not appropriate to take the children`s bread and throw it to the dogs." | Mt 7:6 Mk 7:27 Mk 7:28 Ac 22:21 Ac 22:22 Ro 9:4 Ga 2:15 Eph 2:12 Php 3:2 Rev 22:15 |
| 27 | But she said, "Yes, Lord, but even the dogs eat the crumbs which fall from their masters` table." | Mt 8:8 Gn 32:10 Jb 40:4 Jb 40:5 Jb 42:2-6 Ps 51:4 Ps 51:5 Ezk 16:63 Dn 9:18 Lk 7:6 Lk 7:7 Lk 15:18 Lk 15:19 Lk 18:13 Lk 23:40-42 Ro 3:4 Ro 3:19 1Co 15:8 1Co 15:9 1Ti 1:13-15 |
| 28 | Then Jesus answered her, "Woman, great is your faith! Be it done to you even as you desire." And her daughter was healed from that hour. | Jb 13:15 Jb 23:10 Lam 3:32 |
| 29 | Jesus departed there, and came near to the sea of Galilee; and he went up into the mountain, and sat there. | Mk 7:31 |
| 30 | There came to him great multitudes, having with them the lame, blind, mute, maimed, and many others, and they put them down at his feet. He healed them, | Mt 4:23 Mt 4:24 Mt 11:4 Mt 11:5 Mt 14:35 Mt 14:36 Ps 103:3 Isa 35:5 Isa 35:6 Mk 1:32-34 Mk 6:54-56 Lk 6:17-19 Lk 7:21 Lk 7:22 Ac 2:22 Ac 5:15 Ac 5:16 Ac 19:11 Ac 19:12 |
| 31 | so that the multitude wondered, when they saw the mute speaking, the injured whole, lame walking, and the blind seeing -- and they glorified the God of Israel. | Mt 9:33 Mk 7:37 |
| 32 | Jesus called his disciples to him, and said, "I have compassion on the multitude, because they continue with me now three days and have nothing to eat. I don`t want to send them away fasting, or they might faint on the way." | Mt 9:36 Mt 14:14 Mt 20:34 Mk 8:1 Mk 8:2 Mk 9:22 Lk 7:13 |
| 33 | The disciples said to him, "Where should we get so many loaves in a desert place as to fill so great a multitude?" | Nm 11:21 Nm 11:22 2Ki 4:42-44 Mk 6:37 Mk 8:4 Mk 8:5 Jn 6:5-7 |
| 34 | Jesus said to them, "How many loaves do you have?" They said, "Seven, and a few small fish." | Mt 16:9 Mt 16:10 |
| 35 | He commanded the multitude to sit down on the ground; | Mt 14:19-21 Mk 6:39 Mk 6:40 Lk 9:14-16 Jn 6:10 |
| 36 | and he took the seven loaves and the fish. He gave thanks and broke them, and gave to the disciples, and the disciples to the multitudes. | Mt 26:26 Mt 26:27 1Sa 9:13 Lk 22:19 Lk 24:30 Jn 6:11 Ac 27:35 Ro 14:6 1Co 10:31 1Ti 4:3 1Ti 4:4 |
| 37 | They all ate, and were filled. They took up seven baskets full of the broken pieces that were left over. | Mt 15:33 Mt 14:20 Mt 14:21 Ps 107:9 Lk 1:53 |
| 38 | Those who ate were four thousand men, besides women and children. |
| 39 | He sent away the multitudes, and entered into the boat, and came into the borders of Magdala. | Mt 14:22 Mk 8:10 |
