Mark 7:2-4

Revised Geneva Translation

² And when they saw some of His disciples eat with common hands (that is to say, unwashed), they complained.

³ (For the Pharisees, and all the Jews, do not eat unless they have washed their hands, holding to the traditions of the elders.

⁴ And when they come from the market, they do not eat until they have washed. And there are many other things there which they have taken upon themselves to observe - such as the washing of cups and pots and of metal vessels and of meal mats).
