Defilement Comes from Within
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.
