< Matthew 15 >
1 Then some Pharisees and scribes came to Jesus from Jerusalem and asked,

2 “Why do Your disciples break the tradition of the elders? They do not wash their hands before they eat.”

3 Jesus replied, “And why do you break the command of God for the sake of your tradition?
ⲅ̅⳿ⲛⲑⲟϥ ⲇⲉ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲱⲟⲩ ϫⲉ ⲉⲑⲃⲉ ⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛⲑⲱⲧⲉⲛ ϩⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⲧⲉⲧ⳿ⲉⲛⲉⲣⲡⲁⲣⲁⲃⲉⲛⲓⲛ ⳿ⲛϯⲉⲛⲧⲟⲗⲏ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ Ⲫϯ ⲉⲑⲃⲉ ⲧⲉⲧⲉⲛⲡⲁⲣⲁⲇⲟⲥⲓⲥ.
4 For God said, ‘Honor your father and mother’ and ‘Anyone who curses his father or mother must be put to death.’

5 But you say that if anyone says to his father or mother, ‘Whatever you would have received from me is a gift devoted to God,’

6 he need not honor his father or mother with it. Thus you nullify the word of God for the sake of your tradition.

10 Jesus called the crowd to Him and said, “Listen and understand.

13 But Jesus replied, “Every plant that My heavenly Father has not planted will be pulled up by its roots.

16 “Do you still not understand?” Jesus asked.

17 “Do you not yet realize that whatever enters the mouth goes into the stomach and then is eliminated?

18 But the things that come out of the mouth come from the heart, and these things defile a man.

19 For out of the heart come evil thoughts, murder, adultery, sexual immorality, theft, false testimony, and slander.

21 Leaving that place, Jesus withdrew to the district of Tyre and Sidon.

22 And a Canaanite woman from that region came to Him, crying out, “Lord, Son of David, have mercy on me! My daughter is miserably possessed by a demon.”

23 But Jesus did not answer a word. So His disciples came and urged Him, “Send her away, for she keeps crying out after us.”

28 “O woman,” Jesus answered, “your faith is great! Let it be done for you as you desire.” And her daughter was healed from that very hour.

32 Then Jesus called His disciples to Him and said, “I have compassion for this crowd, because they have already been with Me three days and have nothing to eat. I do not want to send them away hungry, or they may faint along the way.”
