Luke 11:38

And when the Pharisee saw, he marveled that he did not first wash before dinner.

Why do thy disciples transgress the tradition of the elders? For they do not wash their hands when they eat bread.

And having seen some of his disciples eating their loaves with profane hands, that is, unwashed, they accused them.

Therefore a debate developed from John's disciples with the Jews about purification.
