Mk Chapter 7 Verses 1-37

7:1
And
there
came
together
to
him
the
Pharisees
and
certain
of
the
scribes
who
had
come
from
Jerusalem,
7:2
And
had seen
that
some
of
his
disciples
took
their
bread
with
unclean,
that
is,
unwashed,
hands.
7:3
Now
the
Pharisees,
and
all
the
Jews,
do not
take
food
without
washing their hands
with
care,
keeping
the
old
rule
which
has been
handed
down
to
them:
7:4
And
when
they
come
from
the
market-place,
they
take
no food
till
their
hands
are
washed;
and
a
number
of
other
orders
there
are,
which
have been
handed
down
to
them
to
keep–washings
of
cups
and
pots
and
brass
vessels.
7:5
And
the
Pharisees
and
the
scribes
put
the
question
to
him,
Why
do
your
disciples
not
keep
the
rules
of
the
fathers,
but
take
their
bread
with
unwashed
hands?
7:6
And
he
said,
Well
did
Isaiah
say
of
you,
you
false
ones:
These
people
give
me
honour
with
their
lips,
but
their
heart
is
far
from
me.
7:7
But
their
worship
is
to
no
purpose,
while
they
give
as
their
teaching
the
rules
of
men.
7:8
For,
turning
away from
the
law
of
God,
you
keep
the
rules
of
men.
7:9
And
he
said
to
them,
Truly
you
put on
one
side
the
law
of
God,
so
that
you
may
keep
the
rules
which
have been
handed
down
to
you.
7:10
For
Moses
said,
Give
honour
to
your
father
and
mother,
and,
He
who
says
evil
of
father
or
mother,
let
him
have
the
punishment
of
death:
7:11
But
you
say,
If
a
man
says
to
his
father
or
his
mother,
That
by
which
you
might
have
had
profit
from
me
is
Corban,
that
is
to
say,
Given
to
God,
7:12
You
no
longer
let
him
do
anything
for
his
father
or
his
mother;
7:13
Making
the
word
of
God
of
no
effect
by
your
rule,
which
you
have
given:
and
a
number
of
other
such
things
you
do.
7:14
And
turning
to
the
people
again,
he
said
to
them,
Give
ear
to
me
all of
you,
and
let
my
words
be
clear
to
you:
7:15
There
is
nothing
outside
the
man
which,
going into
him,
is able
to
make
him
unclean:
but
the
things
which
come out
of
the
man
are
those
which
make
the
man
unclean.
7:16
[]
7:17
And
when
he
had
gone into
the
house
away from
all
the
people,
his
disciples
put
questions
to
him
about
the
saying.
7:18
And
he
said
to
them,
Have
even
you
so
little
wisdom?
Do you
not
see
that
whatever
goes into
a
man
from
outside
is not
able
to
make
him
unclean,
7:19
Because
it
goes
not
into
the
heart
but
into
the
stomach,
and
goes out with
the
waste?
He
said
this,
making
all
food
clean.
7:20
And
he
said,
That
which
comes out
of
the
man,
that
makes
the
man
unclean.
7:21
Because
from
inside,
from
the
heart
of
men,
come
evil
thoughts
and
unclean
pleasures,
7:22
The
taking
of
goods
and
of
life,
broken
faith
between
husband
and
wife,
the
desire
of
wealth,
wrongdoing,
deceit,
sins
of
the
flesh,
an
evil
eye,
angry
words,
pride,
foolish
acts:
7:23
All
these
evil
things
come
from
inside,
and
make
the
man
unclean.
7:24
And
he
went away
from
there
to
the
country
of
Tyre
and
Sidon.
And
he
went into
a
house,
desiring
that
no
man
might
have
knowledge
of
it:
and
he
was not
able
to
keep
it
secret.
7:25
But
a
woman,
whose
little
daughter
had
an
unclean
spirit,
having had
news
of
him,
came
straight away
and
went down
at
his
feet.
7:26
Now
the
woman
was
a
Greek,
a
Syro-phoenician
by
birth:
and
she
made
a
request
to
him
that
he
would
send
the
evil
spirit
out of
her
daughter.
7:27
And
he
said
to
her,
Let
the
children
first
have
their
food:
for
it
is
not
right
to
take
the
children’s
bread
and
give
it
to
the
dogs.
7:28
But
she
said
to
him
in
answer,
Yes,
Lord:
even
the
dogs
under
the
table
take
the
bits
dropped
by
the
children.
7:29
And
he
said
to
her,
For
this
saying
go
your
way;
the
evil
spirit
has
gone out
of
your
daughter.
7:30
And
she
went away
to
her
house,
and
saw
the
child
on
the
bed,
and
the
evil
spirit
gone out.
7:31
And
again
he
went out
from
Tyre,
and
came
through
Sidon
to
the
sea
of
Galilee,
through
the
country
of
Decapolis.
7:32
And
they
came to
him
with
one
who
had
no
power
of
hearing
and
had
trouble
in
talking;
and
they
made
a
request
to
him
to
put
his
hands
on
him.
7:33
And
he
took
him
on
one
side
from
the
people
privately,
and
put
his
fingers
into
his
ears,
and
he
put
water
from
his
mouth
on
the
man’s
tongue
with
his
finger;
7:34
And
looking
up to
heaven,
he
took
a
deep
breath,
and
said
to
him,
Ephphatha,
that
is,
Be
open.
7:35
And
his
ears
became
open,
and
the
band
of
his
tongue
was
made
loose,
and
his
words
became
clear.
7:36
And
he
gave
them
orders
not
to
give
news
of
it
to
anyone;
but
the
more
he
made
this
request,
so
much
the
more
they
made
it
public.
7:37
And
they
were
overcome
with
wonder,
saying,
He
has
done
all
things
well:
he
even
gives
back
the
power
of
hearing
and
the
power
of
talking to
those
who
have been
without
them.
