Mark 7:17-23

17

AfterG3753 Jesus had leftG1525G575 theG3588 crowdG3793 and gone intoG1519 the houseG3624, HisG846 disciplesG3101 inquired aboutG1905G846 theG3588 parableG3850.

18“AreG1510 youG4771 stillG2532 soG3779 dullG801?” He askedG3004. “Do you not understandG3756G3539? NothingG3956 thatG3588 entersG1531G1519 aG3588 manG444 from the outsideG1855 canG3756G1410 defileG2840 himG846, 19becauseG3754 it does not enterG3756G1531G1519 hisG846 heartG2588, butG235 it goes intoG1519 theG3588 stomachG2836 and thenG2532 is eliminatedG1607G1519G3588G856.” (Thus allG3956 foodsG1033 are cleanG2511.)1

He continuedG2036: “WhatG3588 comesG1607 out ofG1537 aG3588 manG444, thatG1565 is what defilesG2840 him. 21ForG1063 fromG1537 withinG2081 theG3588 heartsG2588 of menG444 comeG1607 evilG2556 thoughtsG1261, sexual immoralityG4202, theftG2829, murderG5408, adulteryG3430,2 22greedG4124, wickednessG4189, deceitG1388, debaucheryG766, envyG3788G4190, slanderG988, arroganceG5243, and foolishnessG877. 23AllG3956 theseG3778 evilsG4190 comeG1607 from withinG2081, andG2532 these are what defileG2840 aG3588 manG444.”
