And when he was come into the house from the multitude, his disciples asked him concerning the parable. And he saith to them, Are ye also so defective of intelligence?

But, said he, what cometh out of a man, that makes a man unclean. For from within out of the heart of men proceed wicked reasonings, adulteries, whoredoms, murders, thefts, inordinate cravings, mischievous actions, knavery, lewdness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, folly: all these wicked things come from within, and render a person unclean.
