The White Stone

Hear (Read) the Words of The LORD:

^{Matthew 15: 7} Hypocrites! Rightly did Isaiah prophesy about you, saying,
⁸ ‘This people honors Me with their lips, but their heart is far from Me.
⁹ And in vain they worship Me, teaching as doctrines the commandments of men.’”
¹⁰ Then Yeshua called the crowd and said to them, “Hear and understand.
¹¹ It’s not what goes into the mouth that makes the man unholy; but what comes out of the mouth, this makes the man unholy.”
¹² Then the disciples came and said to Him, “Do You know that the Pharisees took offense when they heard this saying?”
¹³ But He replied, “Every plant that My heavenly Father has not planted will be uprooted.
¹⁴ Leave them alone; they are blind guides of the blind. And if a blind man leads a blind man, both will fall into a pit.”
¹⁵ Then Peter answered and said to Him, “Explain this parable to us.”
¹⁶ “Are you also still lacking understanding?” Yeshua said.
¹⁷ “Don’t you grasp that whatever goes into the mouth passes into the stomach and then is ejected into the sewer?
¹⁸ But the things that proceed out of the mouth come forth from the heart, and those things make the man unholy.
¹⁹ For out of the heart come evil thoughts, murder, adultery, sexual immorality, theft, false witness, and slander.
²⁰ These are the things that make the man unholy; but to eat with unwashed hands does not make the man unholy.” source
