1 Then came together unto him the P’rushim (Pharisee [separatist]s) [separatists], and certain of the Torah-teachers (Scribes), which came from Yerushalayim [Foundation of Peace].

2 And when they saw some of his disciples eat bread with defiled, that is to say, with unwashen, hands, they found fault.

3 For the P’rushim (Pharisee [separatist]s) [separatists], and all the Y’hudim (Judeans) [praised of Yah], except they wash [their] hands oft, eat not, holding the tradition of the elders.

4 And [when they come] from the market, except they wash, they eat not. And many other things there be, which they have received to hold, [as] the washing of cups, and pots, brasen vessels, and of tables.

5 Then the P’rushim (Pharisees) [separatists] and Torah-teachers (Scribes) asked him, Why walk not youri disciples according to the tradition of the elders, but eat bread with unwashen hands?

6 He answered and said unto them, Well has Yesha’yahu [Yah is salvation] prophesied of you hypocrites, as it is written, This people honours me with [their] lips, but their heart is far from me.

7 However in vain do they worship me, teaching [for] doctrines the commandments of men.

8 For laying aside the commandment of God-Theos, you2f hold the tradition of men, [as] the washing of pots and cups: and many other such like things you2f do.

9 And he said unto them, Full well you2f reject the commandment of God-Theos, that you2f may keep your own tradition.

10 For Moshe [He Who Draws Out Of The Waters] said, Honour youri father and youri mother; and, Whoso curses father or mother, let him die the death:

11 But you2f say, If a man shall say to his father or mother, [It is] Karban [as a gift to God], that is to say, a gift, by whatsoever youi might be profited by me; [he shall be free].

12 And you2f suffer (allow, to let, permit) him no more to do ought for his father or his mother;

13 Making the word of God-Theos of none effect through your tradition, which you2f have delivered: and many such like things do you2f.

14 And when he had called all the people [unto him], he said unto them, Listen unto me every one [of you], and understand:

15 There is nothing from without a man, that entering into him can defile him: but the things which come out of him, those are they that defile the man.

16 If any man have ears to hear, let him hear.

17 And when he was entered into the house from the people, his disciples asked him concerning the parable.

18 And he says unto them, Are you2f so without understanding also? Do you2f not perceive, that whatsoever thing from without enters into the man, [it] cannot defile him;

19 Because it enters not into his heart, but into the belly, and goes out into the draught, purging all meats?

20 And he said, That which comes out of the man, that defiles the man.

21 For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders,

22 Thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lasciviousness (being lustful, loose or lewd; promoting lustful desires in others), an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness:

23 All these evil things come from within, and defile the man.

24 And from there he arose, and went into the borders of Tzor [a rock] and Tzidon [hunting], and entered into an house, and would have no man know [it]: but he could not be hid.

25 For a [certain] woman, whose young daughter had an unclean Spirit [Ruach], heard of him, and came and fell at his feet:

26 The woman was a Greek [unstable: the miry one], a Syro-phoenician [Syria (meaning disputed, blood red)] by nation; and she besought him that he would cast forth the devil out of her daughter.

27 But Yeshua [God is Salvation] said unto her, Let the children first be filled: for it is not meet to take the children’s bread, and to cast [it] unto the dogs.

28 And she answered and said unto him, Yes, Lord - Kurios: yet the dogs under the table eat of the children’s crumbs.

29 And he said unto her, For this saying go youri way; the devil is gone out of youri daughter.

30 And when she was come to her house, she found the devil gone out, and her daughter laid upon the bed.

31 And again, departing from the coasts of Tzor [a rock] and Tzidon [hunting], he came unto the sea of Galil [circuit, district], through the midst of the coasts of Decapolis [The 10-Towns].

32 And they bring unto him one that was deaf, and had an impediment in his speech; and they beseech (to call upon; appeal; beg) him to put his hand upon him.

33 And he took him aside from the multitude, and put his fingers into his ears, and he spit, and touched his tongue;

34 And looking up to heaven, he sighed, and says unto him, Hippatach!, that is, Be opened.

35 And immediately his ears were opened, and the string of his tongue was loosed, and he spoke plain.

36 And he charged them that they should tell no man: but the more he charged them, so much the more a great deal they published [it];

37 And were beyond measure astonished, saying, He has done all things well: he makes both the deaf to hear, and the dumb to speak.
