11 But you say it is all right for people to say to their parents, ‘Sorry, I can’t help you. For I have vowed to give to God what I would have given to you.’7:11 Greek ‘What I would have given to you is Corban’ (that is, a gift).12 In this way, you let them disregard their needy parents.13 And so you cancel the word of God in order to hand down your own tradition. And this is only one example among many others."
14 Then Jesus called to the crowd to come and hear. "All of you listen," he said, "and try to understand.15 It’s not what goes into your body that defiles you; you are defiled by what comes from your heart.7:15 Some manuscripts add verse 16, Anyone with ears to hear should listen and understand. Compare 4:9, 23."
