Context of Mark 7:13

11But you say that if anyone tells his father or mother, ‘Whatever help you would have received from me is corban’ (that is, a gift for God), 12then you no longer permit him to do anything for his father or mother. Thus you nullify the word of God by your tradition that you have handed down. And you do many things like this.” 14Then he called the crowd again and said to them, “Listen to me, everyone, and understand. 15There is nothing outside of a person that can defile him by going into him. Rather, it is what comes out of a person that defiles him.”
