Thematic Bible: Multiplied by traditions
Thematic Bible
Purifications or baptisms » Multiplied by traditions
Why do your disciples transgress the tradition of the elders? for they wash not their hands when they eat bread.
For the Pharisees, and all the Jews, except they wash their hands often, eat not, holding the tradition of the elders. And when they come from the market, except they wash, they eat not. And many other things there be, which they have received to hold, as the washing of cups, and pots, bronze vessels, and of tables.
