Matthew 15:5-9
Matthew 15:5
But you say, ‘Whoever says to his father or mother, “Whatever I have that would help you has been given to God,”
Matthew 15:6
he is not to honor his father or mother.’ And by this you have invalidated the word of God for the sake of your tradition.
Matthew 15:7
You hypocrites, rightly did Isaiah prophesy about you, by saying:
Matthew 15:8
‘This people honors Me with their lips, But their heart is far away from Me.
Matthew 15:9
‘And in vain do they worship Me, Teaching as doctrines the commandments of men.’ ”
