Mark 7:7-9
1599 Geneva Bible
7 [a]But they worship me in vain, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.
8 [b]For ye lay the Commandments of God apart, and observe the tradition of men, as the washing of pots and of cups, and many other such like things ye do.
9 [c]And he said unto them, Well ye reject the commandment of God, that ye may observe your own tradition.
