Context of Matthew 15:16
14Let them alone: they are blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind leadeth the blind, both shall fall into the ditch. 15Then answered Peter and said to him, Make known to us the meaning of this parable. And Jesus said, Are ye also yet without understanding? 17Do ye not yet understand, that whatever entereth in at the mouth goeth into the stomach, and is cast out into the draught? 18But those things which proceed out of the mouth come forth from the heart; and they defile the man.
