Compare all
13 But He answered and said, a“Every plant which My heavenly Father has not planted will be uprooted.  
14 Let them alone. aThey are blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind leads the blind, both will fall into a ditch.”  
15 aThen Peter answered and said to Him, “Explain this parable to us.”  
16 So Jesus said, a“Are you also still without understanding?  
17 Do you not yet understand that awhatever enters the mouth goes into the stomach and is eliminated?  
18 But athose things which proceed out of the mouth come from the heart, and they defile a man.  
19 aFor out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies.  
20 These are the things which defile a man, but to eat with unwashed hands does not defile a man.”
