In context
17 And when he was come into the house from the multitude, his disciples asked him the parable.
18 And he saith to them: So are you also without knowledge? Understand you not that every thing from without entering into a man cannot defile him:
19 Because it entereth not into his heart but goeth into his belly and goeth out into the privy, purging all meats?
20 But he said that the things which come out from a man, they defile a man.
21 For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders,
22 Thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lasciviousness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness.
23 All these evil things come from within and defile a man.
