Mark 7:14-19

14When He had called all the multitude to Himself, He said to them, “Hear Me, everyone, and understand:

15There is nothing that enters a man from outside which can defile him; but the things which come out of him, those are the things that defile a man.

16If anyone has ears to hear, let him hear!”

17When He had entered a house away from the crowd, His disciples asked Him concerning the parable.

18So He said to them, “Are you thus without understanding also? Do you not perceive that whatever enters a man from outside cannot defile him,

19because it does not enter his heart but his stomach, and is eliminated, thus purifying all foods?”
