English Standard Version

Matthew 15:2–6

g“Why do your disciples break hthe tradition of the elders? jFor they do not wash their hands when they eat.” He answered them, “And why do you break the commandment of God for the sake of your tradition? For God commanded, k‘Honor your father and your mother,’ and, l‘Whoever reviles father or mother must surely die.’ But you say, ‘If anyone tells his father or his mother, “What you would have gained from me is given to God,”1 he need not honor his father.’ So for the sake of your tradition you have mmade void the word2 of God.
