Bible verse
Thus you nullify the word of God by the tradition you have handed down. And you do so in many such matters.”
Mark 7:13 · BSB
The verses around it, from Mark 7.
9 He went on to say, “You neatly set aside the command of God to maintain your own tradition.
10 For Moses said, ‘Honor your father and your mother’ and ‘Anyone who curses his father or mother must be put to death.’
11 But you say that if a man says to his father or mother, ‘Whatever you would have received from me is Corban’ (that is, a gift devoted to God),
12 he is no longer permitted to do anything for his father or mother.
13 Thus you nullify the word of God by the tradition you have handed down. And you do so in many such matters.”
14 Once again Jesus called the crowd to Him and said, “All of you, listen to Me and understand:
15 Nothing that enters a man from the outside can defile him; but the things that come out of a man, these are what defile him.”
16 If any man have ears to hear, let him hear.
17 After Jesus had left the crowd and gone into the house, His disciples inquired about the parable.
