Matthew 15:10-12

Christian Standard Bible

Defilement Is from Within

¹⁰ Summoning the crowd, he told them, “Listen and understand: ¹¹ It’s not what goes into the mouth that defiles^(A) a person, but what comes out of the mouth—this defiles a person.”^(B)

¹² Then the disciples came up and told him, “Do you know that the Pharisees took offense when they heard what you said?”
