1 THEN there gathered unto him Pharisees and scribes, who had come from Jerusalem. 2 And they saw some of his disciples eating bread with their hands unwashed; and they reproached them. 3 For all the Jews, even the Pharisees, unless their hands are washed carefully would not eat, because they strictly observe the tradition of the elders. 4 Even the things from the market, if they are not washed, they would not eat them. And there are a great many other things, which they have accepted to obey, such as the washing of cups and pots, and copper utensils, and the bedding of dead men. Mark 7:1-4, Lamsa Bible.
