Mark 7:3-4

3(For the Pharisees and all the other Jews do not eat unless they 1carefully wash their hands, thereby holding firmly to the 2tradition of the elders;

4and when they come from the marketplace, they do not eat unless they 3completely cleanse themselves; and there are many other things which they have received as traditions to firmly hold, such as the 4washing of 5cups, pitchers, and copper pots.)
