8 for laying aside what is of divine appointment, you stick to their human traditions, about the washing of pots, and cups, and many other the like practices. 9 You are in the right, said he, to abolish the laws of God, to make way for such traditions. 10 Moses said, "honour thy father and thy mother;" and, if any one speak contemptibly of his father, or his mother, let him be put to death. 11 but your doctrine is this, if any one shall tell his father or his mother, that what he could bestow for their relief, is corban, that is, to be given to the temple; 12 you discharge him from the obligation of doing any thing for his father or his mother. 13 by such traditions, and such a number of practices, as you have settled, the word of God is stript of all its authority. Mark 7:8-13, Mace New Testament. Public domain.
