Mathew 15

Mat 15:1 Then the scribes and Pharisees came to Jesus from Jerusalem, saying,
Mat 15:2 Why do Your disciples transgress the tradition of the elders? For they do not wash their hands when they eat bread.
Mat 15:3 But answering He said to them, Why do you also transgress the command of God on account of your tradition?
Mat 15:4 For God commanded, saying, “Honor your father and mother,” Ex. 20:12; Deut. 5:16 and, “The one speaking evil of father or mother, by death let him die.” Ex. 21:17
Mat 15:5 But you say, Whoever says to the father or the mother, A gift, whatever you would gain from me;
Mat 15:6 and in no way he honors his father or his mother. And you annulled the command of God on account of your tradition.
Mat 15:7 Hypocrites! Well did Isaiah prophesy concerning you, saying:
Mat 15:8 “This people draws near to Me with their mouth, and with their lips honor Me; but their heart holds far off from Me.
Mat 15:9 But in vain they worship Me, teaching as doctrines the precepts of men.” Isa. 29:13
Mat 15:10 And calling the crowd near, He said to them, Hear and understand:
Mat 15:11 It is not the thing entering into the mouth that defiles the man, but the thing coming forth out of the mouth, this defiles the man.
Mat 15:12 Then coming, the disciples said to Him, You know that hearing the Word, the Pharisees were offended?
Mat 15:13 But answering, He said, Every plant which My heavenly Father has not planted shall be rooted up.
Mat 15:14 Leave them alone. They are blind leaders of the blind; and if the blind lead the blind, both will fall into a pit.
Mat 15:15 And answering, Peter said to Him, Explain this parable to us.
Mat 15:16 But Jesus said, Are you also still without understanding?
Mat 15:17 Do you not yet perceive that everything entering into the mouth goes into the belly, and is thrown out into the waste bowl?
Mat 15:18 But the things which come out of the mouth come forth from the heart, and these defile the man.
Mat 15:19 For out of the heart come forth reasonings, evil things, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, lies, blasphemies.
Mat 15:20 These things are the things defiling the man. But eating with unwashed hands does not defile the man.
Mat 15:21 And going out from there, Jesus withdrew to the parts of Tyre and Sidon.
Mat 15:22 And, behold, a woman of Canaan coming forth from those borders cried out to Him, saying, Have pity on me, Lord, Son of David! My daughter is badly demon-possessed.
Mat 15:23 But He did not answer her a word. And coming near, His disciples asked Him, saying, Send her away, for she cries out after us.
Mat 15:24 But answering, He said, I was not sent except to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
Mat 15:25 But coming, she worshiped Him, saying, Lord, help me!
Mat 15:26 But answering, He said, It is not good to take the bread of the children to throw it to the little dogs.
Mat 15:27 But she said, Yes, Lord; for even the little dogs eat of the crumbs falling from the table of their lords.
Mat 15:28 Then answering, Jesus said to her, O woman, great is your faith; let it be to you as you desire. And her daughter was healed from that hour.
Mat 15:29 And moving from there, Jesus came beside the Sea of Galilee. And going up into the mountain, He sat there.
Mat 15:30 And great crowds came to Him, having with them lame ones, blind, dumb, maimed, and many others. And they flung them down at the feet of Jesus. And He healed them;
Mat 15:31 so that the crowds marveled, seeing dumb ones speaking, maimed ones sound, lame ones walking, and blind ones seeing. And they glorified the God of Israel.
Mat 15:32 But having called His disciples near, Jesus said, I am filled with pity on the crowd, because they already have remained with Me three days and have nothing they may eat. And I do not desire to send them away fasting, that they may not faint in the way.
Mat 15:33 And His disciples said to Him, From where in a deserted place will come to us so many loaves as to satisfy so great a crowd?
Mat 15:34 And Jesus said to them, How many loaves do you have? And they said, Seven, and a few small fish.
Mat 15:35 And He ordered the crowds to recline on the ground.
Mat 15:36 And taking the seven loaves and the fish, giving thanks, He broke and gave to His disciples, and the disciples to the crowd.
Mat 15:37 And all ate and were satisfied. And they took up the left over pieces, seven lunch baskets full.
Mat 15:38 And the ones eating were four thousand men, apart from women and children.
Mat 15:39 And sending away the crowds He went into the boat and came to the borders of Magdala.
