God’s Commandments, Man’s Traditions
[4] "For God said, 'HONOR YOUR FATHER AND MOTHER,' and, 'HE WHO SPEAKS EVIL OF FATHER OR MOTHER IS TO BE PUT TO DEATH.' [5] "But you say, 'Whoever says to [his] father or mother, "Whatever you might benefit from me is given [to God]," [6] he need not honor his father.' And [by this] you invalidated the word of God for the sake of your tradition. [Mat 15:4-6 LSB]
[11] but you say, 'If a man says to [his] father or [his] mother, whatever you might benefit from me is Corban (that is to say, given [to God]),' [Mar 7:11 LSB]
[7] "You hypocrites, rightly did Isaiah prophesy of you: [8] 'THIS PEOPLE HONORS ME WITH THEIR LIPS, BUT THEIR HEART IS FAR AWAY FROM ME. [9] 'BUT IN VAIN DO THEY WORSHIP ME, TEACHING AS DOCTRINES THE COMMANDS OF MEN.'" [Mat 15:7-9 LSB]
[13] Then the Lord said, "Because this people draw near with their mouth And honor Me with their lips, But they remove their hearts far from Me, And their fear of Me is [in the] command of men learned [by rote], [Isa 29:13 LSB]

[46] and He said to them, "Thus it is written, that the Christ would suffer and rise again from the dead the third day, [47] and that repentance for forgiveness of sins would be proclaimed in His name to all the nations, beginning from Jerusalem. [Luk 24:46-47 LSB]
[16] "And I have other sheep, which are not from this fold; I must bring them also, and they will hear My voice; and they will become one flock [with] one shepherd. [Jhn 10:16 LSB]
[27] But she said, "Yes, Lord; but even the dogs feed on the crumbs which fall from their masters' table." [28] Then Jesus answered and said to her, "O woman, your faith is great; it shall be done for you as you wish." And her daughter was healed at once. [Mat 15:27-28 LSB]
