015:001

Why do thy disciples transgress the tradition of the elders? for they wash not their hands when they eat bread

015:002

But he answered and said unto them, Why do ye also transgress the commandment of God by your tradition

015:003

For God commanded, saying, Honour thy father and mother: and, He that curseth father or mother, let him die the death

015:004

But ye say, Whosoever shall say to his father or his mother, It is a gift, by whatsoever thou mightest be profited by me

015:005

And honour not his father or his mother, he shall be free. Thus have ye made the commandment of God of none effect by your tradition

015:006

Ye hypocrites, well did Esaias prophesy of you, saying

015:007

This people draweth nigh unto me with their mouth, and honoureth me with their lips; but their heart is far from me

015:008

But in vain they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men

015:009

And he called the multitude, and said unto them, Hear, and understand

015:010

Not that which goeth into the mouth defileth a man; but that which cometh out of the mouth, this defileth a man

015:011

Then came his disciples, and said unto him, Knowest thou that the Pharisees were offended, after they heard this saying

015:012

But he answered and said, Every plant, which my heavenly Father hath not planted, shall be rooted up

015:013

Let them alone: they be blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch

015:014

Then answered Peter and said unto him, Declare unto us this parable

015:015

And Jesus said, Are ye also yet without understanding

015:016

Do not ye yet understand, that whatsoever entereth in at the mouth goeth into the belly, and is cast out into the draught

015:017

But those things which proceed out of the mouth come forth from the heart; and they defile the man

015:018

For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies

015:019

These are the things which defile a man: but to eat with unwashen hands defileth not a man

015:020

Then Jesus went thence, and departed into the coasts of Tyre and Sidon

015:021

And, behold, a woman of Canaan came out of the same coasts, and cried unto him, saying, Have mercy on me, O Lord, thou son of David; my daughter is grievously vexed with a devil

015:022

But he answered her not a word. And his disciples came and besought him, saying, Send her away; for she crieth after us

015:023

But he answered and said, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel

015:024

Then came she and worshipped him, saying, Lord, help me

015:025

But he answered and said, It is not meet to take the children's bread, and to cast it to dogs

015:026

And she said, Truth, Lord: yet the dogs eat of the crumbs which fall from their masters' table

015:027

Then Jesus answered and said unto her, O woman, great is thy faith: be it unto thee even as thou wilt. And her daughter was made whole from that very hour

015:028

And Jesus departed from thence, and came nigh unto the sea of Galilee; and went up into a mountain, and sat down there

015:029

And great multitudes came unto him, having with them those that were lame, blind, dumb, maimed, and many others, and cast them down at Jesus' feet; and he healed them

015:030

Insomuch that the multitude wondered, when they saw the dumb to speak, the maimed to be whole, the lame to walk, and the blind to see: and they glorified the God of Israel

015:031

Then Jesus called his disciples unto him, and said, I have compassion on the multitude, because they continue with me now three days, and have nothing to eat: and I will not send them away fasting, lest they faint in the way

015:032

And his disciples say unto him, Whence should we have so much bread in the wilderness, as to fill so great a multitude

015:033

And Jesus saith unto them, How many loaves have ye? And they said, Seven, and a few little fishes

015:034

And he commanded the multitude to sit down on the ground

015:035

And he took the seven loaves and the fishes, and gave thanks, and brake them, and gave to his disciples, and the disciples to the multitude

015:036

And they did all eat, and were filled: and they took up of the broken meat that was left seven baskets full

015:037

And they that did eat were four thousand men, beside women and children

015:038

And he sent away the multitude, and took ship, and came into the coasts of Magdala
