1 Then athe Pharisees and some of the scribes came together to Him, having come from Jerusalem.  
2 Now1 when they saw some of His disciples eat bread with defiled, that is, with aunwashed hands, they found fault.  
3 For the Pharisees and all the Jews do not eat unless they wash their hands1 in a special way, holding the atradition of the elders.  
4 When they come from the marketplace, they do not eat unless they wash. And there are many other things which they have received and hold, like the washing of cups, pitchers, copper vessels, and couches.
5 aThen the Pharisees and scribes asked Him, “Why do Your disciples not walk according to the tradition of the elders, but eat bread with unwashed hands?”  
6 He answered and said to them, “Well did Isaiah prophesy of you ahypocrites, as it is written:
b‘This people honors Me with their lips,
But their heart is far from Me. 
7 And in vain they worship Me,
Teaching as doctrines the commandments of men.’
