Mark 7:2-5
2and saw that some of His disciples were eating their bread with 12unholy hands, that is, unwashed.
3(For the Pharisees and all the other Jews do not eat unless they 3carefully wash their hands, thereby holding firmly to the 4tradition of the elders;
4and when they come from the marketplace, they do not eat unless they 5completely cleanse themselves; and there are many other things which they have received as traditions to firmly hold, such as the 6washing of 7cups, pitchers, and copper pots.)
5And the Pharisees and the scribes asked Him, “Why do Your disciples not walk in accordance with the 8tradition of the elders, but eat their bread with 910unholy hands?”
