Mat. 15:2 (LIT/UBS4) “Through (dia) [the sake, AE] of what (ti) <do> the (hoi) disciples (mathētai) of you (sou) step aside (parabainousin) of the (tēn) tradition (paradosin) of the (tōn) elders (presbuterōn)?
Because (gar) they absolutely do not wash (ou niptontai) the (tas) hands (cheiras) of them (autōn) when perhaps (hotan) they may eat (esthiōsin) [a] loaf of bread (arton)!?”
Mat. 15:3 (LIT/UBS4) But (de) the (ho) [Jesus, v1, RE] having been caused to make [a] decision (apokritheis), he enunciated (eipen) to them (autois), “Through (dia) [the sake, AE] of what (ti) <do> you (humeis) also (kai) step aside (parabainete) [from, AE] the (tēn) injunction (entolēn) of the (tou) God (theou), through (dia) the (tēn) tradition (paradosin) of you (humōn)?
Mat. 15:4 (LIT/UBS4) Because (gar) the (ho) God (theos) enunciated (eipen), ‘Honor (tima) the (ton) father (patera) and (kai) the (tēn) mother (mētera).
And (kai) the one (ho) speaking maliciously (kakologōn) of [a] father (patera) or (ē) of [a] mother (mētera), let him come to [an] end (teleutatō), death (thanatō).’

Mat. 15:6 (LIT/UBS4) no (mē), absolutely not (ou) shall he honor (timēsei) the (ton) father (patera) of him (autou)!
And (kai) you nullified (ēkurōsate) the (ton) Word (logon) of the (tou) God (theou) through (dia) the (tēn) tradition (paradosin) of you (humōn)!
Mat. 15:7 (LIT/UBS4) Actors (hupokritai)!
Isaiah (Hsaias) beautifully (kalōs) prophesied (eprophēteusen) about (peri) you (humōn), saying (legōn),
Mat. 15:8 (LIT/UBS4) ‘The (ho) people (laos), this (houtos) [people, RE], honor (tima) me (me) [with, AE] the (tois) lips (cheilesin).
But (de) the (hē) heart (kardia) of them (autōn) distantly (porrō) holds away (apechei) from (ap’) me (emou).
Mat. 15:9 (LIT/UBS4) But (de) emptily (matēn) they cause themselves to revere (sebontai) me (me), teaching (didaskontes) for teachings (didaskalias) precepts (entalmata) of mortals (anthrōpōn)!’”
(See Isa. 29:13)
(For a believer in his discipleship to Christ Jesus being led to being stripped of the power of holy Spirit through false teaching, see Mat. 15:9; John 8:31-47; Rom. 1:21-22; 2 Cor. 10:5-6; 11:13-15; Eph. 5:6-12; *Col. 2:8; 2 Tim. 3:1-15, 4:3-4; Tit. 1:10-14)

Mat. 15:11 (LIT/UBS4) the (to) [loaf of bread, v2, RE] being caused to enter in (eiserchomenon) into (eis) the (to) mouth (stoma) absolutely does not (ou) make common (ou koinoi) the (ton) mortal (anthrōpō)!
BUT (alla), the (to) [word, AE] being caused to go out (ekporeuomenon) out (ek) of the (tou) mouth (stomatos), this (touto) makes common (koinoi) the (ton) mortal (anthrōpon)!”
Mat. 15:12 (LIT/UBS4) Then (tote), the (hoi) disciples (mathētai) having come to (proselthontes) [Jesus, v1, RE], they say (legousin) to him (autō), “You have seen (oidas) that (hoti) the (hoi) Pharisees (Pharisaioi), having heard (akousantes) the (ton) Word (logon), were scandalized (eskandalisthēsan)?”
Mat. 15:13 (LIT/UBS4) But (de) the (ho) [Jesus, v1, RE], having been caused to make [a] decision (apokritheis), he enunciated (eipen), “Every (pasa) plant (phuteia) which (hēn) the (ho) Father (patēr) of me (mou), the (ho) heavenly one (ouranios), absolutely did not plant (ouk ephuteusen), it shall be rooted out (ekrizōthēsetai)!
Mat. 15:14 (LIT/UBS4) Let them go (aphete autous).
They are (eisin) blind ones (tuphloi), leaders (hodēgoi) of blind ones (tuphlōn).
But (de) if perhaps (ean) [a] blind one (tuphlos) may lead (hodēgē) [a] blind one (tuphlon), both (amphoteroi) shall cause themselves to fall (pesountai) into (eis) [a] hole (bothunon).”

Mat. 15:18 (LIT/UBS4) But (de) the (ta) [word, AE] being caused to go out (ekporeuomena) out (ek) of the (tou) mouth (stomatos), it is caused to come out (exerchetai) out (ek) of the (tēs) heart (kardias).
And those ones (kakeina) make common (koinoi) the (ton) mortal (anthrōpon).

Mat. 15:20 (LIT/UBS4) These (tauta) [evil dialogues, v19, RE] are (estin) [sic] the (ta) ones making common (koinounta) the (ton) mortal (anthrōpon).
But (de) for the (to) [mortal, RE] to eat (phagein) [with, AE] unwashed (aniptois) hands (chersin) absolutely does not make common (ou koimoi) the (ton) mortal (anthrōpon)!”
