Did not the One [i.e., God] who made the outside [i.e., your body] also make the inside [i.e., your spirit]? 41 But you should give to poor people what you have inside. [Note: This means either what is inside the dish, or what is inside your heart]. And [then] you will see that everything is [ceremonially] clean to you [as well].
