2and sawG3708 that someG5100 of His disciplesG3101 were eatingG2068 their breadG740 with 12unholyG2839 handsG5495, that is, unwashedG449. 3(For the PhariseesG5330 and allG3956 the other JewsG2453 do not eatG2068 unlessG1437G3361 they 3carefullyG4435 washG3538 their handsG5495, thereby holdingG2902 firmlyG2902 to the 4traditionG3862 of the eldersG4245; 4and when they come from the marketplaceG58, they do not eatG2068 unlessG1437G3361 they 5completelyG907 cleanseG907 themselves; and there are manyG4183 otherG243 thingsG4183 whichG3739 they have receivedG3880 as traditions to firmlyG2902 holdG2902, such as the 6washingG909 of 7cupsG4221, pitchersG3582, and copperG5473 potsG5473.) 5And the PhariseesG5330 and the scribesG1122 askedG1905 Him, “WhyG1223G5101 do Your disciplesG3101 not walkG4043 inG2596 accordanceG2596 withG2596 the 8traditionG3862 of the eldersG4245, but eatG2068 their breadG740 with 910unholyG2839 handsG5495?” 6But He saidG3004 to them, “RightlyG2573 did IsaiahG2268 prophesyG4395 aboutG4012 you hypocritesG5273, as it is writtenG1125: ‘11ThisG3778 peopleG2992 honorsG5091 Me with their lipsG5491, But their heartG2588 is farG4206 awayG568G4206 from Me.712And inG3155 vainG3155 do they worshipG4576 Me, TeachingG1321 as doctrinesG1319 the commandmentsG1778 of menG444.’ 8NeglectingG863 the commandmentG1785 of GodG2316, you holdG2902 to the 13traditionG3862 of menG444.”
