Redaction: Bread from Heaven
MATTHEW MARK LUKE JOHN
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
¶ A[nd] when he had called all the {people / multitude} • unto him, he said unto them, • {Hear, /
Hearken} unto me every one of you, and understand: There is nothing from without a man, that entering
into him can defile him: • Not that which goeth into the mouth defileth a man; but that which cometh out
of the mouth, • the things which come out of him, those are they that defile the man. If any man hath
ears to hear, let him hear. • Then came his disciples, and said unto him, Knowest thou that the Pharisees
were offended, after they heard this saying? But he answered and said, Every plant, which my
heavenly Father hath not planted, shall be rooted up. Let them alone: [T]hey be blind leaders of the
blind. And if the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch. • And when he was entered into the
house from the people, his disciples asked him concerning the parable. • Then answered Peter and
said unto him, Declare unto us this parable. And Jesus said, • unto them, Are ye so without
understanding also? • Do not ye yet understand, • [d]o ye not perceive, that whatsoever thing from
without entereth into the man, it can not defile him; [b]ecause it entereth not into his heart, • that
whatsoever entereth in at the mouth goeth into the belly, and is cast out into the draught • purging all
meats? • But those things which proceed out of the mouth come forth from the heart; • [t]hat which
cometh out of the man, that defileth the man. For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil
thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders, • thefts, false witness, • coveteousness, wickedness, deceit,
lasciviousness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness: All these evil things come from within, •
which defile a man: [B]ut to eat with unwashen hands defileth not a man.
