Some Explaining

Then came to Jesus scribes and Pharisees, which were of Jerusalem, saying, Why do thy disciples transgress the tradition of the elders? for they wash not their hands when they eat bread. But he answered and said unto them, Why do ye also transgress the commandment of God by your tradition? For God commanded, saying, Honour thy father and mother: and, He that curseth father or mother, let him die the death. But ye say, Whosoever shall say to his father or his mother, It is a gift, by whatsoever thou mightest be profited by me; And honour not his father or his mother, he shall be free. Thus have ye made the commandment of God of none effect by your tradition. Ye hypocrites, well did Esaias prophesy of you, saying, This people draweth nigh unto me with their mouth, and honoureth me with their lips; but their heart is far from me. But in vain they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men. And he called the multitude, and said unto them, Hear, and understand: Not that which goeth into the mouth defileth a man; but that which cometh out of the mouth, this defileth a man.-Matthew 15:1-11***Over 650 years before Jesus the Christ, the Son of God, was conceived of the Holy Spirit in the womb of Mary, a virgin, and born into the tribe of Judah to Mary and her husband Joseph when Mary was a virgin, Isaiah (Esaias) the prophet was proclaiming the words of the Lord God to the Israelites in Jerusalem and the rest of Judah, the southern nation in the Promised Land. Approximately 700 years before the Israelites in Judah were hearing the divinely inspired words of Isaiah, the Israelites in the desert wilderness of Sinai, in the region of Mount Sinai, heard the voice of the Lord God proclaim the Ten Commandments to them. In Sinai, the Lord God began giving Moses judgments, statutes and laws for the Israelites, the descendants of Abraham (Abram the Hebrew) and Sarah (Sarai), Isaac and Rebekah, and Isaac and Rebekah's youngest fraternal twin son Jacob (Israel). Reuben, Simeon, Levi, Judah, Issachar, Zebulun, and daughter Dinah were born to Jacob and his 1st wife Leah. Dan and Naphtali were born to Jacob and maidservant Bilhah. Gad and Asher were born to Jacob and maidservant Zilpah, and Joseph and Benjamin were born to Jacob and his 2nd wife Rachel.-Genesis 11:26-50:26, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers 20:1-29, 27:12-23, Deuteronomy 31:1-30, 32:44-52, 34:1-12, Joshua 1:1-4:24, 1 Chronicles 1:1-34, 2:1-17, 3:1-24, 6:1-81, Isaiah, Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Acts 1:1-26

Reference Scriptures:

And God spake all these words, saying,-Exodus 20:1...Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee.-Exodus 20:12

And he that curseth his father, or his mother, shall surely be put to death.-Exodus 21:17

And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,-Leviticus 20:1...For every one that curseth his father of his mother shall be surely put to death: he hath cursed his father or his mother; his blood shall be upon him.-Leviticus 20:9

Wherefore the Lord said, Forasmuch as this people draw near me with their mouth, and with their lips do honour me, but have removed their heart far from me, and their fear toward me is taught by the precept of men: Therefore, behold, I will proceed to do a marvellous work among this people, even a marvellous work and a wonder: for the wisdom of their wise men shall perish, and the understanding of their prudent men shall be hid.-Isaiah 29:13-14

Then spake Jesus to the multitude, and to his disciples,-Matthew 23:1...Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye make clean the outside of the cup and of the platter, but within they are full of extortion and excess.-Matthew 23:25

Then the Pharisees and scribes asked him, saying, Why walk not thy disciples according to the tradition of the elders, but eat bread with unwashen hands? He answered and said unto them, Well hath Esaias prophesied of you hypocrites, as it is written, This people honoureth me with their lips, but their heart is far from me.-Mark 7:5-6...And he said unto them, Full well ye reject the commandment of God, that ye may keep your own tradition.-Mark 7:9...But ye say, If a man shall say to his father or mother, It is Corban, that is to say, a gift, by whatsosever thou mightest be profited by me; he shall be free. And ye suffer him no more to do ought for his father or his mother; Making the word of God of none effect through your tradition, which ye have delivered: and many such like things do ye.-Mark 7:11-13

And as he spake, a certain Pharisee besought him to dine with him: and he went in, and sat down to meat. And when the Pharisee saw it, he marvelled that he had not first washed before dinner. And the Lord said unto him, Now do ye Pharisees make clean the outside of the cup and the platter; but your inward part is full of ravening and wickedness.-Luke 11:37-39
